“The second chief and principal end [of colonization] . . . consists in the [sale] of the mass of our clothes and other commodit
ies of England, and in receiving back of the needful commodities that we now receive from all other places of the world. . . . This one thing is to be done, without which it were in vain to go about this; and that is the matter of planting [colonies] and fortification. . . . We are to plant upon the mouths of the great navigable rivers which are there [in America], by strong order of fortification, and there to plant our colonies. . . . And these fortifications shall keep the [native] people of [America] in obedience and good order. . . .
“. . . Without this planting in due time, we shall never be able to have full knowledge of the language, manners, and customs of the people of those regions. . . . And although by other means we might attain to the knowledge thereof, yet being not there fortified and strongly seated, the French that swarm with [a] multitude of people, or other nations, might secretly fortify and settle themselves before us.”

x+y = 12 (the sum of 2 unknown integers)
x-y = 6 (the difference of the 2 ints)
you just need to solve this for x and y. you can do this using substitution.
x + y = 12
x - y = 6 ---> x = y+6
(y+6) + y = 12
2y = 6
y = 3
x = 9 ---> when we plug in y to x+y = 12 we get x = 9
