The difference of two numbers is 16. The greater number is 5 less than 4 times the smaller number. Find the two numbers.

x= 23

y=7

Step-by-step explanation:

x-y=16

4y-5=x

4y-5-y=16

3y-5=16 add 5 to both sides

3y=21 divide by 3 on both sides

y=7

x-7=16 substitute back in

x=23 added 7 to both sides

so x=23 and y=7

23-7=16
