Spiegazione passo passo

1. Rewrite the information given in the problem as equations

2 sentences contain the information we are after.

The first, [The difference between the 2 numbers is 5], we learn that:

There are 2 numbers we are looking for, as we don't know what they are, we will refer to them as x and y.

The difference of x and y is 5. This can be mathematically expressed as xy=5

A partir de la siguiente frase, [the sum of the 2 numbers is 27], aprendemos que la sum de x y y es igual a 27.

Esta información, puede expresarse en otra ecuación, que sería x+y=27

Ahora tenemos un sistema de ecuaciones:

x-y=5
x+y=27

2. Find the numbers by solving the system of equations

To solve this system of equations, we first solve for the first variable in the first equation and then substitute the result into the second equation.

Solving this set of equation yields the solution set

x=16
y=11

Therefore, the 2 numbers we’ve been asked to find are 16 and 11
