Answer:
5 and 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the numbers be x and y.
[tex]\rm x = 2y[/tex]
[tex]\rm x + y = 15[/tex]
Replace x in terms of y.
[tex]\implies \rm 2y + y = 15[/tex]
[tex]\implies \rm 3y = 15[/tex]
[tex]\implies \rm y = \frac{15}{3}[/tex]
[tex]\boxed{\rm y = 5}[/tex]
Now, lets solve the other number.
[tex]\rm x = 2y[/tex]
Substitute the value of y
[tex]\rm x = 2(5)[/tex]
[tex]\boxed{\rm x = 10}[/tex]
Therefore the numbers are 5 and 10.
