1st number = x, 2nd number = y
Translating the question mathematically it becomes:
x-2 = 3y, or to make it easier: x= 3y+2, x+y= 22
Thus:
(3y + 2) + y = 22
4y + 2 = 22
Move the 2 on the other side, changing its sign to negative:
4y = 22 - 2
4y = 20
Divide by 4, to obtain only y:
4y : 4 = 20 : 4
y = 5
To obtain x:
x= (3*5) + 2= 15+2 = 17
Verify it: 17+5=22
Answer:
0 for all of them.

Answer:
x = 16
Step-by-step explanation:
I could be wrong so sorry in advance lol but this is what I did:
I made the equation 3x + 3 = ((7x-10)/2)
I divided the 2nd equation by 2 so that it would be the same length as RZ.
after that, I got: 3x + 3 = 3.5x - 5
from there, i did basic algebra to get the answer 16
hope this helps!
Answer:
x=2
Step-by-step explanation:
4 (x + 6) - 3x = 26
solve the parenthesis
4x + 24 - 3x = 26
subtract 24 from both sides to get x by itself
4x - 3x = 2
solve
x = 2
