Answer:

14, 6

Step-by-step explanation:

x-y =8 =>x=y+8

x+y=20

y+8 +y=20

2y=20 - 8

2y=12

y=12 :2

y=6 (the second number

x=6 +8 =14 (the first number

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

Can anyone help me with this question?
Andreyy89

Answer:

x= 60°, y = 80°, z = 40°

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at the line substending 40° and Z°; you would see that both lines are parallel and so their angles are they the same.

Hence z= 40° { corresponding angles of parallel lines}

Similarly;

Look at the line substending 60° and x°; you would see that both lines are parallel and so their angles are they the same.

60° = x° { corresponding angles of parallel lines}

Now looking at the angle between x and y; let's call the angle between them r

And you would observe closely that r = z° = 40°{ vertically opposite angles are equal}

Note that x + r + y = 180°{ angle on a straight line}

y = 180° - ( x + r)

y = 180 - (60+40)

y = 180° - 100°

= 80°

Factor the given polynomial completely.<br><br> a²-4a-32
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

(x + 4)(x - 8).

Step-by-step explanation:

a²-4a-32

We need 2 numbers whose product is -32 and whose sum is -4.

They are +4 and -8, so the factors are:

(x + 4)(x - 8).
