Question

The sum of two numbers is
90 and the greater no. exceeds
twice the smaller by 15 find
the no​

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 65 , y = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given-----> The sum of two number is 90 and greater no exceeds twice the smaller by 15 .

To find -----> Find the number.

Solution-----> Let number be x and y and x is greater than y .

ATQ, Sum of numbers is 90

=> x + y = 90

=> x = 90 - y

ATQ, greater number = 2 × Smaller number + 15

=> x = 2 y + 15

=> 90 - y = 2y + 15

=> 90 - 15 = 2y + y

=> 75 = 3y

=> y = 75 / 3

=> y = 25

Now putting y = 25 , in , x = 90 - y , we get,

x = 90 - 25

=> x = 65
