Homework Statement
What is the change in internal energy (in Joules) of an ideal gas that does 4.675x10^5J of work, while 2.95x10^6J of heat is transferred into the system and 7.95x10^6J of heat is transferred from the system to the environment? Calculate the change in temperature of the two moles of the gas. (R=8.314 J/mol.k)

The Attempt at a Solution
Me and my friend attempted two different ways, I'm probably wrong but my setup was
4.675x10^5=8.314(1)(T)
2.95x10^6=8.314(1)(T)
I found the two answers and added then together and did 7.95x10^6=8.314(2)(T) found this answer, then subtracted the two answers to get a final temperature.
