Answer:

If the first number is x and y is the second number

x = 11

y = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

If x is the first number and y is the second number then:

x + 7 = y

The sum of the two numbers is expressed as:

x + y = 29

In order to find what the two numbers are, use what you know. According to the first equation, y equals the first number(x) plus 7, so you can substitute that for the y in the second equation

x + y = 29

x + (x + 7) = 29

2x + 7 = 29

2x + 7 - 7 = 29 - 7

2x/2 = 22/2

That means x equals 11

Now that x is known, you can find the value for y. The second number(y) is 7 more than than the first number(x) so that means x + 7 = y

11 + 7 = y

y = 18

Ina two digit number, the units digit is twice the tens digit. If the number is doubled, it will be 9 more than the number rever
lukranit [14]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  36

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the digits of the number be represented by t for the tens digit and u for the units digit.

  u = 2t . . . . . . . . the units digit is twice the tens digit

  2(10t +u) = (10u +t) +9 . . . . . double the number is 9 more than its reverse

Substituting for u, we have ...

  2(10t +2t) = 10(2t) +t +9

  24t = 21t +9 . . . . . . . . . . . collect terms

  3t = 9 . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 21t

  t = 3 . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 3

  u = 2t = 6 . . . . find u

The number is 36.
