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

WILL MARK AS BRAINIEST!!!!!!! In this triangle, which of the following is true?
prisoha [69]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the 3 angles in a triangle = 180°

Subtract the sum of the 2 given angles from 180

x = 180° - (90 + 35)° = 180° - 125° = 55°

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

Since the triangle is right use the cosine ratio to solve for b

cos35° = \frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse} = \frac{b}{20}

Multiply both sides by 20

20 × cos35° = b, hence

b = 16.38 ( to 2 dec. places )

The government taxes a manufacturer $0.20 for a bottle of soda. The manufacturer raises the wholesale price an additional $0.60
alukav5142 [94]

Answer: $0.95

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we simply have to add all amounts raised by the government, the manufacturer, and the retailer.

Mathematically speaking:

$0.20+$0.60+$0.15 = $0.95

So, a consumer pays $0.95 more per bottle of soda.

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.
