One number is 7 more than twice another. If their difference is 22, what is the larger number? 29
37
43

Step-by-step explanation:

We'll write each one of these statements into an algebraic equation. The word "is" means "=", the words "more than" mean "+", and "difference" means subtraction. x will be one number, and y will be the other number. The first sentence, then, in an algebraic equation, is

x = 2y + 7

The second equation, then, is

x - y = 22

Since we know from the first equation what x is equal to, we will sub in what x equals into the second equation in place of x:

2y + 7 - y = 22 and

y + 7 = 22 so

y = 15.

Sub that in for y to solve for x:

x - 15 = 22 so

x = 37
