Question

please help me with these ​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let...the numbers = 5x & 7x

According to the sum..

5x - 7x = 10

-2x = 10

x = 10/-2

x = -5

The numbers = 5(-5) = -25

Next number = 7(-5) = -35.....

Check: (-25)-(-35) = 10.

Hope it helps you...

Answer 2

AnswEr:-

The Numbers are,

• 25 and 35.

ExplanaTion:-

Given:-

• The ratio of two numbers are 5 : 7.

• The difference between the number is 10.

To Find:-

• The numbers.

So Now,

Since it is given that the ratio of two numbers is 5:7 therefore let the numbers be 5x and 7x.

Also,

The difference between both the number is 10 which is positive and hence larger number is subtracted from larger number.

And here clearly we can see that 7x > 5x.

Therefore ATQ:-

↦ 7x - 5x = 10.

↦ 2x = 10.

↦ x = 10/2.

↦ x = 5.

So the numbers are:-

• 5x = 5 × 5 = 25.

• 7x = 7 × 5 = 35.

And hence the numbers are 25 and 35.
