HELP: Use a system of linear equations to solve the following riddle:

The difference of two numbers is 12.

Number x is 3 more than 4 times number y.

Number x is greater than the number y.

What are the two numbers?

A) x - y = 12

B) x = 4y +3 or x - 4y = 3

A) x - y = 12

B) x - 4y = 3

We subtract B) from A)

3y = 9

y = 3

A) x -y = 12

x - 3 = 12

x = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

that is the sum
