The numbers are 50 and -15.

Step by step:

Let X + Y = 35 (i)
and X - Y = 65 (ii)
Find X, Y = ... ?

From (i),
X + Y = 35
substract Y from both sides,
X + Y - Y = 35 - Y
X = 35 - Y (iii)

substitute (iii) into (ii),
X - Y = 65
(35 - Y) - Y = 65
35 - 2Y = 65
substract 35 from both sides,
35 - 35 - 2Y = 65 - 35
-2Y = 30
divide -2 from both sides,
-2Y/-2 = 30/-2
Y = -15

substitute Y=-15 into (iii),
X = 35 - Y = 35 - (-15) = 35 + 15 = 50

So, X = 50 and Y = -15.

A converging lens of focal length 5 cm is placed at a distance of 20
lesya [120]

The object should be placed 20/cm from the lens so as to form its real image on the screen

<h3>Mirror equation</h3>

The mirror equation is given according to the expression below;

1/f = 1/u + 1/v

where

f is the focal length

u is the object distance

v is the image distance

Given the following parameters

f = 5cm

v = 20cm

Required

object distance u

Substitute

1/5 = 1/u +1/20

1/u = 1/5-1/20
1/u = 3/20

u = 20/3 cm

Hence the object should be placed 20/cm from the lens so as to form its real image on the screen
