The value of the number is 15.

How to compute the value?

Let the first number be represented by x.

The second number will be:

(2 × x) - 2 = 2x - 2

Therefore, the addition of the numbers will be:

= x + 2x - 2 = 43

3x - 2 = 43

3x = 43 + 2

3x = 45

Divide

x = 45/3

x = 15.

Therefore, the number is 15
