POINTS PLUS BRAINLIEST ANSWER!! EXTREMELY DESPERATE I’LL TRADE YOU MY HOUSE FOR CORRECT ANSWER!!!! The sum of two numbers is 90. The difference between them is 44. Find the two numbers.
Let x= the first number and let y= ?

First equation: x+y=90; second equation: ?

The two numbers are_.

Answer 1

x + y = 90

x - y = 44

Add both equations together.

2x = 134

Divide both sides by 2.

x = 67

Plug 67 in to either equation to solve for y.

67 + y = 90

Subtract 67 from both sides.

y = 23

The value of x is 67

The value of y is 23.
