Answer» Answer 75 and 25 Step by Step x - y = 50 and x/y = 3/1 (x must be > y in order to get a POSITIVE SUM.) x/y = 3/1 cross multiply to get x = 3y In x - y =50 replace x with 3y 3y - y = 50 Combine like terms 2y = 50 Divide both sides by 2 y = 25 In x - y = 50 Replace y with 25. x - 25 = 50 Add 25 to both sides x = 75 Check: 75-25=50 75/25= 3/1 These INTEGERS are 75 and 25.

Answer

75 and 25

Step by Step

x - y = 50 and x/y = 3/1 (x must be > y in order to get a POSITIVE SUM.)

x/y = 3/1

cross multiply to get

x = 3y

In x - y =50 replace x with 3y

3y - y = 50

Combine like terms

2y = 50

Divide both sides by 2

y = 25

In x - y = 50 Replace y with 25.

x - 25 = 50

Add 25 to both sides

x = 75

Check:

75-25=50

75/25= 3/1

These INTEGERS are 75 and 25.

Have A Happy Day ❤️❤️
