The sum of two numbers is 12. the difference between twice the first number and the second number is 33. find the two numbers

Let the two numbers be = x and y

Sum of these two numbers is 12 , so

from here we get,

The difference between twice the first number and the second number is 33

 ....(1)

Putting the value of x=12-y in equation (1)

As x+y=12

Hence the two numbers are = 15 and -3

the ratio of balloons to tables is 5: 2 and the constant variation is 5.

the equation is y=5x

step-by-step explanation: it is d
