- Write an equation that represents this clue. Then, find two possible pairs of numbers Diego could be thinking of.
- Diego then says, “If we take half of the first number and double the second, the sum is 14. Write an equation that could represent this description.
- What are Diego’s two numbers? Explain or show how you know. A coordinate plane is given here, in case helpful.
