A two-digit number exceeds twice the sum of its digits by 7. Find the number if its tens digits is smaller than its units digit also by 7.
\n" ); document.write( "---------
\n" ); document.write( "Equations:
\n" ); document.write( "10t+u = 2(t+u)+7
\n" ); document.write( "t = u - 7
\n" ); document.write( "------------
\n" ); document.write( "Rearrange:
\n" ); document.write( "8t - u = 7
\n" ); document.write( "t - u = -7
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "Subtract and solve for \"t\":
\n" ); document.write( "7t = 14
\n" ); document.write( "t = 2
\n" ); document.write( "------
\n" ); document.write( "Solve for \"u\" using t-u = -7
\n" ); document.write( "2 - u = -7
\n" ); document.write( "u = 9
\n" ); document.write( "-------
\n" ); document.write( "Ans: The number is 10t+u = 29
