Answer 1

Answer:

ANSWER

Let the first number be x and the second number be x+15.

According to the question,

x+x+15=95

2x=80

x=40

Hence, the first number is 40 and the second number is 55.

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, sum of two numbers is 80.

Let the smaller number be x

Thus the larger will be 80−x.

Also given, larger number exceeds four times the smaller number by 5.

Therefore, 80−x=4x+5

⇒5x=75

⇒x=15

Thus the smaller number is 15.
