Answer:

13. 11 and 4

14. 18 and 9

15. 9 and 4

Step-by-step explanation:

You want the pairs of numbers that satisfy different relations:

13. sum of 15, difference of 7
14. ratio of 2:1, total of 27
15. sum of 13, difference of 5

Sum and difference

Consider the sum and difference problem:

a + b = s . . . . . sum

a - b = d . . . . . difference

Adding these two equations gives ...

(a +b) +(a -b) = (s) +(d)

2a = s +d

a = (s +d)/2

Using the second equation to find b, we have ...

b = a -d

13. (S, D) = (15, 7)

The two numbers are ...

(15 +7)/2 = 11

11 -7 = 4

15. (S, D) = (13, 5)

The two numbers are ...

(13 +5)/2 = 9

9 -5 = 4

14. Ratio

When two numbers that total N have the ratio a : b, the first of them is ...

a/(a+b) · N

and the second of them is ...

b/(a+b) · N . . . . . . . also equal to N-a

The problem asks for two numbers that total 27 and have the ratio 2:1.

The larger is 2/(2+1)·27 = 18.

The smaller is 1/(2+1) ·27 = 9.
