Answer:

First number = 4

Second number = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

If the first number = x, the second number = x + 5.

The calculation can be expressed as follows:

x + 2(x + 5) = 22

First, expand the bracket 2(x + 5):

x + 2x + 10 = 22

Combine like terms:

3x + 10 = 22

Subtract 10 from both sides:

3x = 12

Divide both sides by 3:

x = 4

First number = 4

Second number = 4 + 5 = 9
