Eugene wrote a riddle: a positive number is 5 less than another positive number. six times the lesser number minus 3 times the greater number is 3. find the two positive numbers.

the answer is (-8,-5)

step-by-step explanation:

the endpoint to midpoint is half the length. the length is (-2,-1) so when you are at the midpoint just add it to it to find your answer -6+(-2)= -8 and -4+(-1)=-5 so (-8,-5)
