Question

The sum of two numbers is 33 and their difference is 17 then find the numbers

Answer 1

let the two numbers be X & Y
given that x+y=33.....(1)
x-y=17......(2)
by solving equations 1 and 2 we get
2x=50
=>x=25
by solving X in eqn 1 we get
25+y=33
y=8

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first number=x

And second number=y

According to the condition ..

X+y=33........(1)eq..

And..X-y =17 .....(2)eq

From eq 1 and 2 ..we get

2x=50

x=25 ..

Put the value of x ...in eq 1..

25+y=33

Y=33-25

y=8....

Hence the the numbers are 25 and 8
