The sum of two numbers is 36 . the larger number is 16 more than the smaller number. what are the numbers?

X=y+16
X+y=36
Y+16+y=36
2y+16=36
2y=36-16
2y=20
Y=10
X=10+16
X=26
Hope this helps

X+y=36
x-16=y
2x=52
x=26
y=10
The two numbers are 26 and 10.

When rates are expressed as a quantity of 1, such as 2 feet per second or 5 miles per hour, they are called unit rates. if you have a multiple-unit rate such as 120 students for every 3 buses, and want to find the single-unit rate, write a ratio equal to the multiple-unit rate with 1 as the second term.

What is the inequality?
