The sum (answer to addition problem) of two numbers is 90. The difference (answer to a subtraction problem of those same two numbers is 46. What is the smaller number? What is the larger number? PLEASE HELP I’LL GIVE BRAINLIEST

smallest = 22

largest = 68

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the larger number, you take the average of the sum and the difference.

90 + 46 = 136/2 = 68

To get to the sum, you must add 22.

To get to the difference you must subtract 22.

68+22 = 90

68-22 = 46

step-by-step explanation:

since the sequence is geometric there is a common ratio r between consecutive terms, that is

r = 4 ÷ - 2 = - 2

r = - 8 ÷ 4 = - 2

r = 16 ÷ 8 = - 2

the next term - 13 must be incorrect as it should be - 32 for the sequence to be geometric.

the first 4 terms are therefore geometric with common ratio r = - 2
