Answer:

7 and 3

Explanation:

Numbers are x and y, where x > y

Half the difference = 2

  • (x - y)/2 = 2 ⇒ x - y = 4

The sum of the greeter number and the twice the smaller number is 13

  • x + 2y = 13

Considering x = y+4 in the second equation

  • y + 4 + 2y = 13
  • 3y = 13 - 4
  • 3y = 9
  • y = 3

Then

  • x = y + 4
  • x = 3 + 4 = 7

The numbers are 7 and 3
