First number = X

second number = x +26  ( exceeds means higher so add 26)

x + x+26 = 58

combine like terms:

2x + 26 = 58
 subtract 26 from each side:

2x = 58-26

2x = 32

divide both sides by 2:
x = 32/2
x = 16

first number is 16
second number = 16+26 = 42

How would you simplify 5-6w-4+7w?
Natasha2012 [34]
You add the like terms. In this case, the like terms are -6w,+7w & 5,-4.
-6w + 7w = 1w.
5 - 4 = -1.
The coefficients (terms with variables - letters) comes firm, then the terms (numbers) 
.
so the final answer is: 1w -1   :)
