Please help I really need it I’ll give brainliest

Answer 1

OK I’m going to put these as an equation to make things a bit easier for you.
Let X be the bigger number and let Y be the smaller number
X+Y=27
X=2y+6
Once you see those it’s quite clear that this is a simple substitution problem so let’s solve for Y first
2y+6+y=27
And then let’s substitute it in for the first number
3y+6-6=27-6
3y=21
Y=7
Then let’s solve for X
X+7=27
X+7-7=27-7
X=20
So your two answers are 7 and 20

Answer 2

Answer:

I think the answer is C

Explanation:

If the sum of two numbers is 27 then that would have to be at the end of the equation. If you needed to add 6 to a number then there would have to be a "+6" somewhere in there, so that rules out D and A. Twice means times 2 to the answer C makes sense.
