In a certain year, the average e-mail user sent or received 138 e-mails each day. The number of e-mails received was 2 more than thrice the number sent. How many were sent and how many were received each day?

Respuesta :

Answer:

the 34 would be sent and 104 would be received

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the number of sent and number of received each day is shown below:

Let the number sent be x

And, the number received be y = 3x + 2

Now according to the question

x + 3x + 2 = 138

4x = 136

x = 34

So, the y = 34(3) +  2

= 104

hence, the 34 would be sent and 104 would be received
