The sum of 2 numbers is 15 and their qoutient is 2

x + y = 15(1)

x/y = 2(2)

y = 15 - x

put this value in eq 2

x/(15-x) = 2

x = 2 (15 - x)

x = 30 - 2x

2x + x = 30

3x = 30

x = 10

y= 15 - x

y = 15 - 10

y = 5

Solution:

Given:

Let’s simplify the second equation to find out the value of x.

Now, let’s substitute the value of x into the first equation.

Now, let’s substitute the value of y into the simplified second equation.

Hence, the value of x and y are 5 and 10 respectively.

the answer is a
