Question 1049025
Adalyn = x
Morgan = y
x = 2y+9 we'll use this value for x next
2x = 5y+2 substitute for x
2(2y+9) = 5y+2
4y+18 = 5y+2 subtract 4y and 2 on both sides
16 = y
or
y = 16 this is how many Morgan has. And Adalyn? Well, she has:
x = 2y+9 = 2(16)+9 = 32+9 = 41 Morgan has 41
Happy learning,
