Answer:

the number of boys and girls on a team is 58 and 26 respectively

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

Total members in swimming team is 84

Let us assume the number of girls be x

so, the number of boys would be

y = 2x + 6

Now the equation is

x + y = 84

x + 2x + 6 = 84

3x = 78

x = 26

And, y = 2 × 26 + 6

= 52 + 6

= 58

Hence, the number of boys and girls on a team is 58 and 26 respectively
