Find the value of two numbers is their sum is 21 and their difference is 3

Hello from MrBillDoesMath

  12, 9

Discussion:

Let x be the first number and y the second number. The form the problem statement:

x + y = 21

x - y = 3

Add the two equations. This gives:

(x + x ) + ( y-y) = 21 + 3 =>

2x + 0 = 24 =>

x = 12

Since x -y =3, substituting in the value of x gives,  12 - y = 3 so y = 9

Thank you,

image result for what is another name for consecutive interior angles? ​

when two lines are crossed by another line (called the transversal): the pairs of angles on one side of the transversal but inside the two lines are called consecutive interior angles. in this example, these are consecutive interior angles: d and f.
