numbers

plz give me a right answer​

Answer 1

Answer:

let , the other number be x.

the one number be 3x.

A/q,

3x - x = 26.

2x = 26.

x = 26/2

x = 13.

Therefore,

the one number be 3x = 3 × 13 = 39.

the other number be x = 13.

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

1. x - y = 26
2. 3x - y = 0

Solving 1 and 2 equation

x = 26-y

1. 3 (26 - y) - y= 0
2. 78 + 3y - y
3. 78 + 2y = 0
4. -78=2y
5. -78/2
6. y = - 39
