The correct answer to this question is $x = -1$ and $y = -5.5$

Explanation:

Given - The sum of two numbers is -6.5, and their difference is 4.5.

To Find - what are the numbers?

The sum is an arithmetic operation that adds two numbers to produce the final result. Let X be the first number and Y be the second. X + Y = Z is the outcome of adding X and Y.

The outcome of an addition is a sum. For instance, adding 1, 2, 3, and 4 results in the written number 10.

$x + y = - 6.5$  --- 1)

$x - y = 4.5$  ---- 2)

$2x = -2$

$x = -1$

Now  $x$ the value in $2$

$y = -5.5$
