Question

.difference between two number is 16 the great number is one more than twice the smaller number find the number ​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let greater number be x

let smaller number be y

The larger of two numbers is: x =

one more than twice the smaller: 2y + 1

x = 2y + 1 (eq 1 )

Difference between two numbers = 16

x - y = 16

y = x - 16 ( eq 2 )

substituting eq 1 into 2 ,we get

x = 2( x - 16 ) + 1

x = 2x -33

x - 2x = -33

-x = -33

x = 33

y = 33 - 16

y = 17

two numbers are 16 and 17
