Answer:
The linear pair of equations are :
X - Y = 26.
X = 3 * Y.
The solution is :
X = 49.
Y = 13.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let numbers be X and Y.
Given,
X - Y = 26. ------1st equation
X = 3 * Y. ------2nd equation
Substituting 2nd equation in 1st equation,
3 Y - Y = 26.
2 Y = 26.
Y = 26/2
Therefore,
Y = 13. ------3rd equation
Substituting 3rd equation in 1st equation,
X - 13 = 36.
X = 36 + 13.
Therefore, X = 49.
So,
X = 49.
Y = 13.
Hope this helps!!!!!
