Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :The greater of two numbers is 12 more than the smaller and the sum of the two numbers is 10

To Find : find the numbers

Solution :

Let the smaller no. be x

we are given that The greater of two numbers is 12 more than the smaller

So, greater number = x+12

We are also given that the sum of the two numbers is 10

So,

Smaller number = -1

Greater number = x+12=-1+12=11

Hence the numbers are -1 and 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

-1 and 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the smaller number be x.

So, x+12(ATQ)

Now,ATQ

x+x+12=10

2x+12=10

2x=10-12

2x=-2

x=(-2÷2)

x= -1

So smaller number= -1

Greater number= x+12 => -1+12 => 11
