The answer is on the picture!!
We write to expressions since there are two unknown here which is x and y. The first expression is the <span>sum of two numbers, x and y, is 12.
x + y = 12
The second expression is that the </span><span>difference of x and two times y is 6.
x -2y = 6
Therefore, the values of x and y are 10 and 2.</span>
Answer: 9 remainder 2
Explanation: 9 is the closest 6 can get to 56 without going over. Since 9•6=54, and 56-54=2 , 2 is the remainder.

Answer: 19</h3>
==============================================================
Explanation:
T is the midpoint of PQ, which means T splits PQ into two equal parts. Those parts being PT and TQ.
Set them equal to each other and solve for x.
PT = TQ
3x+7 = 7x-9
3x-7x = -9-7
-4x = -16
x = -16/(-4)
x = 4
So,
PT = 3x+7 = 3*4+7 = 19
TQ = 7x-9 = 7*4-9 = 19
Both PT and TQ are 19 units long to help confirm the answer.
