Answer:

a = 22

b = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two numbers be represented as a and b.

a + b = 29

a - b = 15

Using elimination method

Add both equations

2a = 44

Divide both sides by 2 to get a

2a/2 = 44/2

a = 22

Now substitute a = 22 in any of the equations to get b .

Using the first equation, we have

a + b = 29

22 + b = 29

Subtract 22 from both sides of the equation

22 - 22 + b = 29 - 22

b = 7

Therefore the two numbers are 22 and 7
