Answer 1

Answer:

y = -x and 2y = 3x - 10 is the system of equations.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

Larger number = x

Smaller number = y

According to given statement;

x + y = 0

y = -x  

And

3x - 2y = 10

Or it can be written as;

2y = 3x - 10

Therefore,

y = -x and 2y = 3x - 10 is the system of equations.
