Question

The sum of two numbers is 369 the difference of those two numbers is 17 which answer choice shows both numbers

Answer 1

(176, 193)

Explanation:

Well you forgot to put in the choices, but:

The difference between the numbers is 17. Let's call the smaller number x and the bigger one y

(x + y) = 369

y = x + 17

(x + (x + 17)) = 369

2x + 17 = 369

2x = 352

x = 176

y = x + 17 = 193

Answer 2

X=193,y=176
X+y=369
X-y=17
X=17+y
(17+y)+y=369
17+2y=369
2y=352
Y=176
X=369-176
X=193
