Answer 1

Answer:

12)one number is 31 other number is 31+7=38

13)one number is 13 other number is 3(13)-2=39-2=37

Step-by-step explanation:

12)let the smaller number be x then greater number will be x+7

sum of numbers is 69

then x+x+7=69

2x+7=69

2x=69-7

2x=62

x =62/2

x=31

other number is 31+7=38

13)let one number be x another number is 3x-2

there sum is 50

x+3x-2=50

4x-2=50

4x=52

x=52/4

x= 13

other number is 3(13)-2=39-2=37
