Question

Two numbers have a sum of 32 and a difference of 60.​

Answer 1

Answer: 46 and -14

Step-by-step explanation:

Set one of the numbers as x and the other as y.

$x + y = 32\\x - y = 60$

Add the two equations together (which removes the y variable because y - y = 0).

$2x = 92\\x = 46$

Plug that back in.

46 - y = 60

y = -14

Check for the other equation.

46 - 14 = 32

This is correct.
