Question 770978
One star = x
Another star = y
x + y = 55844 units
one star gives off about 3.6 times as much energy as another star plus 400 units of energy. 
x = 3.6y + 400
x + y = 55844
Substitute 3.6y + 400 for x
3.6y + 400 + y = 55844
4.6y = 55844 - 400
4.6y = 55444
   y = 12053.
One star (x) emits 43791 units of energy
Another star (y) emits 12053 units of energy.
Hope this helps.
