Answer:

14, 22

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there are two different variables, setting up a system of equations and using the elimination method will eliminate one variable and allow you to solve.  

First equation:  'the sum of two numbers is 36'

x + y = 36

Second equation:  'twice the first number minus the second is 6'

2x - y = 6

Elimination (add equations):

 x + y = 36

+<u> 2x - y = 6</u>

  3x = 42

    x = 14

Solve for 'y':  

14 + y = 36

y = 22

Plz click on image and answer two of questions Thanks to anyone who answers!!!

1. find the speed of a car
the distance is 124 miles and the time is 2 hours
the speed is defined as distance / time, therefore
speed = 124/2 = 62 miles/hour
that is the speed

2.find the time from equation time = distance/speed, when the distance is 395 miles and the speed is 79 miles/hour, then
time = 395 miles / 79 miles/hour = 395/79
time = 5 hours

Show and explain how replacing one equation by the sum of that equation and a multiple of the other produces a system with the s
My name is Ann [436]
First, let's multiply the first equation by two on the both sides:
<span>8x + 7y = 39         /2
</span>⇒ 16x + 14y = 78

Now, the system is:
<span>16x + 14y = 78
</span><span>4x – 14y = –68
</span>
After adding this up in the column:
(16x + 4x) + (14y - 14y) = 78 - 68
20x = 10
⇒ x = 10/20 = 1/2


y can be calculated by replacin the x:
<span>8x + 7y = 39
</span>⇒ 8 · 1/2 + 7y = 39
4 + 7y = 39
7y = 39 - 4
7y = 35
⇒ y = 35 ÷ 7 = 5
