If one number is five more than another number, and the smaller number is half of the larger number, what are the two numbers?

10 and 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first number be x.

Let the second number be y.

x = 5 + y

y = 1/2x

Plug y as 1/2x in the first equation.

x = 5 + (1/2x)

Solve for x.

Subtract 1/2x on both sides.

x - 1/2x = 5 + 1/2x - 1/2x

1/2x = 5

Multiply both sides by 2.

2(1/2x) = 2(5)

x = 10

Plug x as 10 in the second equation.

y = 1/2(10)

Solve for y.

y = 5

x = 10

y = 5

The two numbers are 10 and 5.

10 is the larger number.

5 is the smaller number.

the highest percentage for deaths in construction from highest to lowest is as follows: falls, struck by objects, electrocution, and caught-in/between. these four are collectively known as fatal four.

in the case of falls, the type that is responsible for the overall highest death in the category is falls from roofs.
