Answer:

14

Step-by-step explanation:

Sarah:X-5

Liam:x-5÷2

Amy:x-10÷2

Equate Amy's value to 2

x-10/2=2

Multiply two in both sides to have:

x-10=4

hence;

x=14

A first number plus twice a second number is 1. Twice the first number plus the second totals 14. Find the numbers
poizon [28]

Let's consider the first number to be f and the second number to be s. Based on the information in the problem, we can create the following equations:

f + 2s = 1

2f + s = 14


Now, we can solve the equations through systems of equations. One way of doing this is by multiplying one of the equations so that there is a term in both equations which can be removed by addition or subtraction. In our case, we can multiply the entire first equation by 2 to get:

2f + 4s = 2/tex][tex]2f + s = 14


Now, subtract 2f from both equations to get:

3s = -12

s = -4


Now that we have found s, "plug" it back into an equation to find f:

f + 2(-4) = 1

f - 8 = 1

f = 9


Our answers are s = -4 and f = 9.
