The Sum of two numbers is 25. One of the numbers exceeds the other by 9. Find the numbers.

8 and 17

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number x and y

Sum of numbers, x + y = 25 ( 1 )

One number exceeds other by 9,

 that is difference between the numbers is 9, x - y = 9

                                                                       => x = 9 + y   ( 2 )

Substitute ( 2 ) in ( 1 )

( 9 + y ) + y = 25

2y = 25 - 9

2y = 16

y = 8

Substitute y = 8 in ( 2 ) : x = 9 + y

                                        = 9 + 8 = 17

Therefore the 2 numbers are 8 and 17

The answer would be that one number is 8 and the second is 17.

The sum of these two numbers is 25, ad 17 and 8 have a difference of 9
