The sum of a number and two times a smaller number is 98. the bigger number is 22 less than three times the smaller number.

60 & 19
54 & 22
50 & 24
58 & 20

The answer is 50 and 24

The two equations are x + 2y = 98   and   x = 3y - 22

every answer equals 98 when you use the first equation but the only one that works with the second equation is C (works meaning when you plug in the answers from the answer choices) 

x = 3(24) - 22

x = 50
