Answer:
X = 50; Y = 50
Answers are the same by following the correct order of operations.
Step-by-step explanation:
This problem deals with the correct order of operations. Multiplication is done before addition.
22 * 2 + 6 = X
44 + 6 = X
X = 50
6 + 22 * 2 = Y
6 + 44 = Y
Y = 50
The answers are the same despite the order in which the operations were written since by following the correct order of operations, you must do the multiplication first in each chase.
