Given :-
Sum of two numbers is 36
If 9 is subtracted from 8 times the first number, we get the second number.
Aim :-
To fins the two numbers
Answer :-
According to the question,
First number + Second number = 36
Let the first number be, say y.
The second number = (8×y) - 9 → 8y - 9
Substituting these values in the equation,
y + 8y - 9 = 36
Adding the like terms,
→ 9y - 9 = 36
Transposing (-9) to the RHS (Right Hand Side),
→ 9y = 36 + 9
→ 9y = 45
Transposing 9 to the RHS (Right Hand Side),
Reducing to the lowest terms
→ y = 5
Therefore,
First number = 5
Second number = (8×5) - 9 → 36
Verification :-
Let us verify the values of the numbers by substituting it in the equation and checking.
LHS (Left Hand Side) :-
→ 31 + 5
→ 36
LHS (Right Hand Side) :-
→ 36
LHS = RHS
HENCE VERIFIED.
The numbers are 5 and 31 respectively
