Answer 1

Answer:

Linear Equations in One Variable

A positive number is 5 times another number. If 21 is added to both the numbers, then one of the new numbers becomes twice the other new number. What are the numbers? Thus, the required numbers are 7 and 35.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the numbers be x,y

⟹y=5x

21 is added

The numbers are

y+21,x+21

According to question

y+21=2(x+21)

5x+21=2x+42

5x=2x+21

3x=21

x=7⟹y=35

Answer 2

Answer:

The required number is 7 and 35
