Answer:

The numbers are 6 and 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Say the unknown numbers are x and y

Say y = 8+x ................... eqn 1

and x + y = 20 ................ eqn 2

Then if you replace y by 8+x, eqn 1 becomes

x + 8 + x = 20

Collect the like terms

x + x = 20 - 8

2x = 12

Divide both sides by 2

x = 12/6

x = 6

Then to get y, substitute 6 for x in eqn 1, and we will have

y = 8 + 6

y = 14

Answer:

First number=6

Second number=14

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first number be x

So the second number is x+8

So the sum of the two is

X+x+8=20

2x+8=20

2x=20-8

2x=12

X=12/2

=6

The second number will x+8

So 6+8=14

First number=6

Second number=14

A ball is thrown from the top row of seats in a stadium. The function
KatRina [158]

Answer:

It will be 5 seconds before the ball hits the ground  

Step-by-step explanation:

∵ A ball is thrown from the top row of seats in a stadium

∵ The function

∵ <em>h</em>(t) = −16t² + 64t + 80 , gives the height, in feet, of the ball t seconds

   after it is thrown

∵ The ball hits the ground

→ That means h(t) = 0

∵ h(t) = 0

∴ 0 = -16t² + 64t + 80

→ Reverse the two sides

∴ -16t² + 64t + 80 = 0

→ Divide both sides by -16 to simplify it

∵  \frac{-16t^{2}}{-16}+\frac{64t}{-16}+\frac{80}{-16}=\frac{0}{-16}

∴ t² - 4t - 5 = 0

→ Factorize it into two factors

∵ t² = t × t

∵ -5 = -5 ×  1

∵ -5t + 1t = -4t ⇒ the middle term

→ The factors are (t - 5) and (t + 1)

∴ (t - 5)(t + 1) = 0

→ Equate each factor by 0 to find t

∵ t - 5 = 0

→ Add 5 to both sides

∴ t = 5

∵ t + 1 = 0

→ Subtract 1 from both sides

∴ t = -1 ⇒ rejected because no negative value for the time

∵ t = 5

∴ It will be 5 seconds before the ball hits the ground
