Answer:

17

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the larger number be represented by x

Let the smaller number be represented by y

from the question, the next equations can be gotten :

x - y = 9  equation 1

x = 1 + 2y equation 2

Substitute for x in equation 1

1 + 2y - y = 9

1 + y = 9

Collect like terms

y = 9 - 1

y = 8

Substitute for y in equation 1 and solve for x (the larger number)

x - 8 = 9

x = 9 + 8

x = 17
