The sum of two numbers is 63. The second is 6 more than 2 times the first. What are the two numbers?

\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Ok, so you know that your second number is 2x+6. If you plug that and the 63 into an equation, you get:
\n" ); document.write( "\"63=x%2B2x%2B6\"

\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Add:
\n" ); document.write( "\"63=3x%2B6\"

\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Subtract 6 from both sides:
\n" ); document.write( "\"57=3x\"

\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Divide both sides by 3:
\n" ); document.write( "\"19=x\"

\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So now you know your first number. To find the second, use 2x+6.
\n" ); document.write( "\"2%2819%29%2B6\"

\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Multiply:
\n" ); document.write( "\"38%2B6\"

\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Add:
\n" ); document.write( "\"44\"

\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So, your first number is 19, and your second number is 44.

\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "To check, simply plug the numbers in:
\n" ); document.write( "\"63=19%2B44\"

\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Add:
\n" ); document.write( "\"63=63\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
