The sum of two numbers is 361, and the difference between the two numbers is 173. What are the two numbers?

Divide 361 by 2 180.5 Divide 173 by 2 86.5 180.5+86.5=267 One of the # is 267 361-267=94 The other is 94

The **bigger **number will be 267 and the **smaller **number will be 94.
What is the linear system?
A **linear **system is one in which the **parameter **in the **equation **has a **degree **of one . It might have one, two, or even more variables .
Let the **two **number be **x **and y .
And assume that the **number x **is **greater **than the number y .
x > y
The **sum **of **two **numbers is 361. Then the **equation **will be
x + y = 361 ...1
The **difference **between the **two **numbers is 173. Then the **equation **will be
x - y = 173 ...2
**Add **equation 1 and 2, then the **equation **will be
x + x = 361 + 173
2x = 534
x = 534 / 2
x = 267
**Substitute **the value of x in **equation **1, then the **equation **will be
267 + y = 361
y = 361 – 267
y = 94
The **bigger **number will be 267 and the **smaller **number will be 94.

The two numbers are 267 and 94, determined by solving the equations based on their sum and difference. The larger number is 267, and the smaller number is 94. This was found by setting up a system of linear equations and solving them step by step.
