Two positive numbers have a difference of 8. The larger number is three more than twice the smaller. Find the two numbers.

  5 and 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the smaller number. Then the larger number is 2x+3, and the difference is ...

  (2x+3) -(x) = 8

  x = 5

The two numbers are 5 and 13.
