The sum of two numbers is 98. If four times the smaller number is subtracted from the larger number, the result is 18. Find the two numbers,
The larger number is
The smaller number is

Hey there!

Let's make a system of equations using x and y to find the two numbers.X is smaller and y will be larger.

x+y=98

y-4x=18

Now, let's solve the bottom equation for y so we can use substitution.

y=18+4x

Now we plug this into the first equation.

x+18+4x=98

5x+18=98

5x=80

x=16

Now, we plug this into the first equation to find y.

y=82.

So, the larger number is 82 and the smaller number is 16.

I hope this helps! Have a great day!
