Let the numbers be x and y; x being the larger number and y being the smaller.
Given,
x + y = 2* (x - y)
x + y = 2x - 2y
x = 3y
Also given,
x = 6 + 2y
3y = 6 + 2y
--- y = 6
Thus, x = 3y = 3*6 = 18.
Therefore, the numbers are 18 and 6.
Addd 4 to both sides
sqare both sides
x+9=25
minus 9 both sides
x=16
plug it in for x and see
1=1
true
not extraneous
an extraneous root would be x=-34
I believe the answer is 2 :) .
