Well since the specific heat of substance A is greater, that means when you mix substance A and B together, the mixture will have a temperature closer to B's original than A.
The higher the specific heat of something, the more it needs to raise its temperature

Since you didn't complete your question, I'm just going to guess.
If you heated two samples of the same size at the same rate, Substance B will heat more quickly than sample A.
The specific heat is a measure of how much energy must be added to change the temperature of 1 gram of the substance by 1degree. The larger the specific heat, the more energy must be added to change its temperature.
