Answer 1

Answer: x=68, y=37

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for the sum of two numbers is 105 would be x+y=105. You can say the larger number would be x and the smaller would be y. So, x=2y-6. then you plug that into the x in the first equation.

2y-6+y=105

3y-6=105

3y=111

y=37

Then you would plug in the y to one of the equations. I will do the second one but you can do either one.

x=2y-6

x=2*37-6

x=74-6

x=68
