Let the two nombers be a,b such that a>b.
So,
a+b=0...............................................(1)
a-b=12...................................(2)
Add (1) and (2)
a+a+b-b=12
so
2a=12
thus,
a=6
Now putting a=6 in equation 1
b=-6
that is ur ans

Let the two integers be x and y
x+y = 0 ----(1)
x-y = 12 -----(2)
(1) + (2)
x+y = 0
x-y = 12
______
2x = 12
x = 6
x+y = 0
6+y = 0
y = -6
Therefore,the pair of integers is (6,-6)
Hope it helps
