The difference between two numbers is 28. The sum of the two numbers is 56. Let x be the larger number and y be the smaller number. Which system of equations represents this proble O y - x = 28 I + y = 56 O x=y= 28 x + y = 56 Oy - 2 = 56 x + y = 28 - y = 56

Respuesta :

Since x is the larger number and y is the smaller number

Since their sum is 56

That means add x and y then equate them by 56

[tex]x+y=56(1)[/tex]

Since the difference between them is 28

That means subtract y from x and equate the answer by 28

[tex]x-y=28(2)[/tex]

Look at the answer to find the correct answer

It is B

x - y = 28 and x + y = 56
