Let the two numbers be a and b.
\n" ); document.write( "a+b = 114 The sum of the two numbers is 114.
\n" ); document.write( "b = 5a+6 The second number is 6 more than 5 times the first number. Substitute this for b in the first equation and solve for a.
\n" ); document.write( "a + (5a+6) = 114 Simplify.
\n" ); document.write( "6a+6 = 114 Subtract 6 from both sides.
\n" ); document.write( "6a = 108 Divide both sides by 6.
\n" ); document.write( "a = 18
\n" ); document.write( "b = 5(18)+6
\n" ); document.write( "b = 96\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "One number is 18
\n" ); document.write( "The other number is 96
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
