Step-by-step explanation:
As we have to Construct a word problem on simultaneous linear equations in two variables
problem:
The sum of the two numbers is 38 and the difference between them is 2 . Find the numbers
solution:
let the numbers be a and b
then according to the problem
sum of two numbers is 38
a+b = 38 ....(1)
difference between the two numbers is 2
a- b= 2...(2)
solving equation (1) and (2)
we get
2b= 36
b= 18
the one number is 18
putting the value of b in eq (1)
we get
a = 20
other number is 20
hence the two numbers are 18 and 20
