Question 1107287
 One number is two less than a second number.
x = y - 2
 Six times the first is 44 more than 4 times the second.
6x = 4y + 44
simplify, divide by 2
3x = 2y + 22
replace x with (y-2)
3(y-2) = 2y + 22
3y - 6 = 2y + 22
3y - 2y = 22 + 6
y = 28 is the second number
and
x = 28 - 2
x = 26 is the first number
