Question

the sum of tow numbers is 22 and their difference is 6

Answer 1

Answer:14 and 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

x= 14

y= 8

EXPLANATION:

x+y = 22 (given)

this implies, y= 22-x

x-y=6 (given)

(putting value of y)

(22-x) -x = 6

22- 2x = 6

-2x = 6-22

-2x = -16

x = 8

now, putting value of x in x+y = 22

this implies, 8+y=22

y=22-8= 14.

therefore, 8 and 14 are the two numbers.
