Question

Could someone please answer this who actually knows how to do it please??!

Answer 1

Answer:

x+y= 59,  x-y= -13

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that x is the smaller number and y is the bigger number. We also know that the difference is 13, meaning x-y= -13. Since the sum of the two numbers is 59, x+y= 59

Answer 2

Simple the equations are

• x+y=59--(1)
• x-y=13--(2)

Add both

• 2x=72
• x=36

Put in second one

• 36-y=13
• y=23
