Algebra.Com's Answer #91297 by iluvbuilding429(41)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! 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( " \r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Add: \n" ); document.write( " \r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Subtract 6 from both sides: \n" ); document.write( " \r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Divide both sides by 3: \n" ); document.write( " \r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So now you know your first number. To find the second, use 2x+6. \n" ); document.write( " \r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Multiply: \n" ); document.write( " \r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Add: \n" ); document.write( " \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( " \r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Add: \n" ); document.write( " |
