Answer:

the two numbers are 19 and 6

Step-by-step explanation:

so we know that there are two numbers that added together give us 25

x+x=25


one of the numbers is twice the amount of the second plus 7

(2x+7)+x=25


simplify 2x+7+x

3x+7=25


subtract 7 from both sides

3x=18


divide 3 by both sides

x=6


and there is your answer.
