The larger of two numbers is 4 more than 2 times the smaller number. If the sum of the two numbers is 28, what is the larger number

Respuesta :

Answer:

The larger number is 20.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x and y be the two numbers.

y = 2x + 4

x + y = 28

So x + 2x + 4 = 28

3x = 24

x = 8

y = 20
