The different between two number is 5 and their sun is 43.find the number
Answers
Correct question :
The difference between two numbers is 5 and their sum is 43. Find the numbers
Solution
Let the first number be 'x'
and the second number be 'y'
According to question,
x - y = 5 _____(i)
x + y = 43 _____(i)
Solving from the elimination method and subtracting eqn.(ii) from eqn.(i), we get :-
x - y = 5
x + y = 43
- - -
__________________
-2y = -38
y = -38/-2
y = 19
Now, Putting the value of y in eqn.(i) :-
=> x - 19 = 5
=> x = 5 + 19
=> x = 24
Hence, The two numbers are 19 and 24 respectively.
Given:
• Difference of two number is 5
and
• Sum is 43
Let the two numbers be x and y
A/c to ques,
◆ x+y = 43 -----(i)
and
◆ x-y=5 -----(ii)
Now ,
Add both equation ,we get
=> 2x= 48
=> x= 48/2
=>x= 24
Now put the value of x in equation (i)
• x+y=43
=> 24+y=43
=> y= 43-24
=> y= 19
Hence the two numbers are :
and
