Question

The sum of 'x' and 'y' is 92. 'x' is larger than 'y' by 20. Find the two numbers.

Answer 1

Answer:

x=36. y=56

Step-by-step explanation:

x+y=92......(1)

x+20=y........(2)

from equation (1)

x+y=92

y=92-x....(3)

input equation (3) in (2)

x+20=92-x

collect like terms

x+x=92-20

2x=72

x=72/2

x=36

input the value of x in equation (1)

x+y=92

36+y=92

y=92-36

y=56
