3 answers

a) The equations we would use are:
1) x + y = 22 (where x and y are the two numbers)
2) 3x + 5 = 35

b) The two numbers are:
x = Response area
y = Response area
are you sure?
I apologize for the mistake in my previous response. Let's go through the calculations again.

a) The equations we would use are:

1) x + y = 22 (The sum of two numbers is 22)
2) 3x + 5 = 35 (Three times one number increased by five is 35)

b) Solving the equations:

From equation 1, we can express one variable in terms of the other variable:
x = 22 - y

Now we substitute this expression for x in equation 2:
3(22 - y) + 5 = 35

Distribute the 3:
66 - 3y + 5 = 35

Combine like terms:
71 - 3y = 35

Subtract 71 from both sides:
-3y = 35 - 71
-3y = -36

Divide both sides by -3:
y = -36 / -3
y = 12

Now substitute the value of y back into equation 1 to solve for x:
x + 12 = 22

Subtract 12 from both sides:
x = 22 - 12
x = 10

Therefore, the two numbers are x = 10 and y = 12. Apologies again for the confusion in my previous response.
