Question

sum of two natural number is 25 . 5 times the smaller number 5 more than 3 times the greater number find the number​

Answer 1

let two numbers be x and y . x be the smaller and y be the greater one.

x+y = 25 ------------1

and

5x =3y+5------------2

3x + 3y =75

3x +5x-5 =75

8x = 80

x = 10

putting in 1, y = 15

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x+y=25---------equation1

5x-5=3y

5x-3y=5--------equation2

subtracting equation 2from 1

(x+y=25)5  =  5x+5y=125

5x-3y=5

5x+5y=125

5x-3y=5    

2y=120

y=60

x+y=25

x+60=25

x=25-60

x=-35
