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
