Numbers_Word_Problems/111747: Hi Checkley,
Are you still there? I have one more problem involving integers. This particular problem: The sume of the two integers and then the second is 8 more than 3 times the first.
So, I think that I should also set up this problem similar.
I worked it out and I know my answer was wrong.
Here is what I did.
The sume of two numbers is 76. The second is 8 more than 3 times the first.
What are the two numbers?
I put
x+y = 76
y= 3x+8
Is that correct? I am not certain how to deal with this problem correctly.
is there any way you can help me with this one.
Thank you Checkley.
Tracy
