Answer:
FOR FIRST CONDITION X>Y :X=8 Y=3
FOR SECOND CONDITION Y>X: Y=8 X=3
Step-by-step explanation:
LET THE NUMBERS BE X AND Y
IT IS GIVEN
X + Y=11
AND
X-Y=5
FROM FIRST EQUATION WE CAN SAY X=11-Y
SUBSTITUTING THIS IN SECOND
11-Y-Y=5
11-2Y=5
6=2Y
Y=3
X=8
THUS THE TWO NUMBER ARE 3 AND 8
IF THE SECOND EQUATION WAS LIKE
Y-X=5
THEN Y-11+Y=5
2Y=16
Y=8
X=3

SOLUTION
____________________________
Let the first number be x .
then second number=11-x
a/q
11-x-x=5
11-2x=5
-2x=5-11
or,-x=-6
or,x=6/2
or,x=3
hence, first number=x=3
and second number=11-x=11-3=8
