Answer:

30 and 22

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be solved using system of equations

Let x = the bigger number

Let y = the smaller number

The sum of two numbers is 52

x + y = 52

The difference is 8

x - y = 8

x + y = 52

x - y = 8

I will solve using elimination

 (x + y = 52)

+ (x - y = 8)

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

2x = 60

/2     /2

x = 30

x + y = 52

30 + y = 52

-30         -30

y = 22
