Answer:
6 ; 5
Step-by-step explanation:
suppose,
One number = x
second number=y
so,
One number is 9 less than three times a second number
x=3y-9.........(2)
again,
the first number plus twice the second number is 16
so,x+2y=16.....(2)
now drop value of x from (1) to (2)
3y-9+2y=16
5y=25
y=5
then drop value of y=5 to (2)
x=3 . 5 -9
x=15-9
x=6
