Answer: 4, 1

Step-by-Step Explanation:

Let the First Number be ‘x’
Let the Second Number be ‘y’

Framing 2 Equations :-

=> 3x + 2y = 14 (Eq. 1)
=> 2x - y = 7 (Eq. 2)

Multiplying Eq. 2 by 2 :-

=> 4x - 2y = 14 (Eq. 3)

Adding Eq. 1 and Eq. 3 we get :-

7x = 14 + 14
7x = 28
x = 28/7
=> x = 4

Therefore, x = 4

Substitute value of ‘x’ in Eq. 1 :-

3x + 2y = 14
3(4) + 2y = 14
12 + 2y = 14
2y = 14 - 12
2y = 2
y = 2/2
=> y = 1

Therefore, y = 1

Hence,
First Number = 4
Second Number = 1

I don't understand (t+8)(-2)=12
Evgen [1.6K]
It it called an equation. Equation consist of number, symbols, and a equal sign.
To solve, first do -2 times t and -2 times 8. Your equation would look like this after: -2T+(-16)=12. Then add 16 to each side. -2T=28. Next, divide by -2. T=-14 is your answer.
