Answer:

First number is -2.5

Second number 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Four times the first number minus three times the second number is 2.

To represent this statement, 4x -3y =2

Two times the first number increased by three times the second is 10.

To represent thsi statement, 2x+ 3y = 10

4x - 3y = 2

2x + 3y =10

4x - 2x = 2x

2x = -5

x= -2.5

The first number is -2.5

By using Substitution

2x + 3y = 10

2(-2.5) + 3y = 10

-5 + 3y = 10

3y = 10 +5

3y =15

y = 5

The second number is 5

....To check my answer

-5 + 15 = 10

No, it isn't.

Pythagorean theorem is x^2 + y^2 = z^2.
