The larger of two numbers is 10 less than twice the smaller number. if the sum of the two numbers is 38, find the two nubers

Respuesta :

Since there is no equation for this, just plug in numbers and find the numbers that work. After plugging in a couple of numbers, I found that 16*2-10=22, and 16+22=38. Therefor, the answers are 16 and 38.
