Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

let the numbers be x and 5x

b/c

5x + 21 = 2(x +21)

5x + 21 = 2x + 42

5x - 2x = 42-21

3x = 21

x = 21/3

x = 7

the numbers are 7 and 35

Answer 2

Answer:

the numbers are 7 and 35

Step-by-step explanation:

let one positive number be x and the other be 5x

adding 21 to it

5x+21=2(x+21) -given

5x+21=2x+42

5x-2x=42-21

3x=21

x=7

one number is 7 and the other number is 5*7=35
