One number is eight more than the second number. Six times the first is 12 less than 2 times the second

Let second no is x

Then 1st no is 8+x

6 times to the 1st no is 6 * (8+x)

Then second no is 2x-12

Then the equation is

6 * (8+x) = 2x-12

48+6x=2x-12

6x-2x=-48-12=-60

4x=-60

X=-60/4=-15

Then 1st no is - 15+8=-7

2nd no is - 15

X=-7

y=-15

Step-by-step explanation:

6 (y+8) = 2y-12

6y+48=2y-12

6y-4y=2y and - 48+-12=-60

4y=-60

y=-15

x=-7
