The sum of two numbers is 44, and the larger number is 2 more than the smaller number. What is the smaller number?
If S = the smaller number and L = the larger number, then which of the following systems of equations represents the word problem?
S + L = 44 and L = S + 2
S + L = 44 and L = 2S
S + L = 44 and S = L + 2
If S = the smaller number and L = the larger number, then which of the following systems of equations represents the word problem?
