    If y is 16 the x is 2y+3=2•26+3 = 51

    i think this is the answer i forgot this but this is so easy.

    Two integers are x and y

    sum of two integers (x+y) = 26

    x = 2 + 3y

    plug that into equation above:

    x + y = 26

    (2+3y) + y = 26

    4y + 2-2 = 26-2

    4y = 24

    4y/4 = 24/4

    y = 6

    x = 2 + 3y = 2 + 18 = 20
