Answer:
x=65,y=25
Step-by-step explanation:
let the larger number be = x
smaller number be is =y
given that x+y=90. ( equation 1)
and x=twice the smaller number by 15
then x = 2y+15 (equation 2)
from 1 and 2
x+y =90
x-2y=15
=3y=75
y=75/3
y =25
substitute y=25 in equation 1
x+y=90
x+25=90
x=90-25
x =65
thanks for the good question
