Answer 1

Answer:

hey your answer is as follows

so pls mark it as brainliest

Step-by-step explanation:

now let the larger number be x and that of smaller be y

so according to first condition

y=x-3 (1)

according to the second condition

2y+17=3x (2)

substitute value of y from (1) in (2)

we get

2(x-3)+17=3x

ie 2x-6+17=3x

so x=11

now substitute value of x in (1)

we get y=8

thus the greatest number is 11 and that of smaller is 8
