Answer:
14, 22
Step-by-step explanation:
x+y = 36
2×x - y = 6
=> x = 36 - y
=> 2×(36 - y) - y = 6
72 - 2y - y = 6
-3y = -66
3y = 66
y = 22
=> x = 36 - 22 = 14

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.
