Question

the sum of two numbers is 25 thrice the smaller number is subtracted from twice the larger number the subtraction is also 25 find the numbers solution​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let two numbers x and y

x+y=25.........(1)

2x-3y=25…....(2)

multiply equation 1 by 3

3x+3y=75

2x-3y=25

on adding we get

5x=100

x=20

y=5

Answer 2

Given :

the sum of two numbers is 25 thrice the smaller number is subtracted from twice the larger number the subtraction is also 25

To Find :

find the numbers solution​

Solution:

Let the two numbers be x and y

We are given that the sum of two numbers is 25

So,x+y=25---1

We are also given that thrice the smaller number is subtracted from twice the larger number the subtraction is also 25

So,2x-3y=25---2

Substitute the value of x from 1 in 2

2(25-y)-3y=25

50-2y-3y=25

50-5y=25

25=5y

5=y

Substitute the value of y in 1

x+5=25

x=25-5

x=20

Hence the numbers are 20 and 5
