Write 2 equations:
a +b = 39
and b = 1/2a + 6
Now replace b in the first equation with the second one:
a + 1/2a + 6 = 39
Combine like terms:
1 1/2a + 6 = 39
Subtract 6 from each side:
1 1/2a = 33
Divide both sides by 1 1/2:
a = 33 / 1 1/2 = 33 / 1.5
a = 22
Now replace a with 22 in the first equation and solve for b:
22 + b = 39
b = 39 -22
b = 17
The two numbers are 17 and 22.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let J = Jerry's age
Let M = Mary's age = 2J
M - 16 = J + 16
Substitute 2J for Mary's age
2J - 16 = J + 16
2J - J - 16 = 16
J = 16 + 16
J = 32
Jerry is 32.
Mary is twice as old as Jerry.
Mary is 2(32) = 64
Number of ways = 4! = 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 = 24
