+2
-3 x 2 + 2 = -4
Subtract any POSITIVE integer from -2, and you get an integer that is smaller.
the answer is -2 because |-2| is 2 and when doubled it is 4
x = 3 + 2y
1 ... 2 ... An integer is just a whole number.
-6 is less than -4 since it is more negative
1 - 3 = -2

-2, -1, 0 ,1
ok this is what it looks like to me...I definitely could be wrong. one integer is three more than twice another integer if one integer is three more than another number (x+3=y) Then you just multiply "the other number" by 2. (x+3=2*y) Sum of two integers is 36....so add them (x+y=36) Solve that equation for one number so...(y=36-x) Then you would plug that equation into the first equation where there is a y: (x + 3 = 2*(36-x))
