Step-by-step explanation: The first thing you want to do is create a system of equations.
Let's use x to represent one number and y to represent the other.
So, we know that x+y=50 and x-y=14.
We can manipulate the second equation, making it x=y+14 by adding y to both sides. Then, now that we have an equivalent to x, we can plug it into the first equation to solve for y.
