Answer:

x = -40 and y = -64

Explanation:

The ratio of the two numbers is 5/8, since the difference of these two numbers is 24, what is the sum

Let two numbers be x and y.

ATQ,

x-y = 24 ..(1)

and


(x)/(y)=(5)/(8)

or

8x-5y =0 ...(2)

Multiply equation (1) by 8.

8x-8y = 192 ...(3)

Subtract equation (3) from (2).

8x-5y -(8x-8y) = 0-192

-5y+8y = -192

3y = -192

y = -64

Put the value of y in equation (1).

x-(-64) = 24

x+64 = 24

x = -64+24

x = -40

So, the values of x and y are -40 and -64 respectively.
