Answer:

The numbers are 6 and 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two numbers be x and y

x-y = 8

x+y = 20

Add the two equations

x-y = 8

x+y = 20

-----------------

2x = 28

Divide by 2

2x/2 = 28/2

x = 14

Subtract the two equations

x-y = 8

-x-y = -20

-----------------

-2y = -12

Divide by -2

-2y/-2 = -12/-2

y = 6

The numbers are 6 and 14
