To solve the problem:
-
The sum of two numbers is 22:
- This can be expressed as the equation: x + y = 22.
-
Three times one number (let's say x) increased by five is 35:
- This can be expressed as the equation: 3x + 5 = 35.
Therefore:
a) The equations you would use are:
- x + y = 22
- 3x + 5 = 35
b) To find the two numbers, you can solve the equations.
From the second equation:
- \(3x + 5 = 35\)
- \(3x = 30\)
- \(x = 10\)
Now substitute \(x = 10\) into the first equation:
- \(10 + y = 22\)
- \(y = 12\)
Thus, the two numbers are:
- 10 and 12.
You would input them as:
- Response area: 10
- Response area: 12.
