Answer:

The numbers are -1 and 11

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, x+x+12=10

2x+12=10

2x=-2

x=-1

Smaller number = -1

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

Hence the numbers are -1 and 11

Your Answer is -1 And 11.

====================================

ExplanaTion:-

Given:-

  • The greater number is 12 more than the smaller number.

  • Sum of the two numbers = 10.

To Find:-

  • The Numbers.

Now,

Let the smalller number be x.

So the larger number will be 12 +x.

Therefore ATQ:-

↦ (12 + x) + x = 10.

↦ 12 + x + x = 10.

↦ 12 + 2x = 10.

↦ 2x = 10 - 12.

↦ 2x = -2.

↦ x = -2/2.

↦ x = -1.

So the samaller number is x = -1.

And the greater number is x + 12

= -1 + 12

= 11.
