the sum of two numbers is 44. one number is 2 more than twice the other. write a system of equations that define this situation ​

Sagot :

One number is 21 and the other is 23

I know this because they both have to be the same number but one of them has to have 2 more than the other and this is the only pairs of numbers that an equal 44 together.

Here are some trials i had to figure this out.

12+ 14 =26

13+ 15=28

16+ 18= 34

18+ 20= 38

19+ 21=40

21 +23= 44

Hope this helped<3

Have a wonderful day...
