a = larger number
b = smaller number
The difference of twice the smaller integer and 7 times a larger is 4 means:
2 b - 7 a = 4
When 5 times the larger integer is subtracted from 3 times the smaller, the result is - 5 means:
3 b - 5 a = - 5
Now you must solve system of two equation:
2 b - 7 a = 4
3 b - 5 a = - 5
The solutios are:
a = - 2 , b = - 5
larger number = - 2
smaller number = - 5
b = smaller number
