Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
<em>Identify</em>
Point A(3, 8)
Point B(-1, 1)
<u>Step 2: Find distance </u><em><u>d</u></em>
- Substitute in points [Distance Formula]:

- [√Radical] (Parenthesis) Subtract:

- [√Radical] Evaluate exponents:

- [√Radical] Add:

So you know if a and b are the numbers that a+b=36 and a-b=4 so you can solve one I solved the second equation for a a=4+b and plugging that a value into equations gives you 4+b+b=36
This simplified to 4+2b=36
2b=32
B=16 so you know one number is 16 and you can plug it in to find a a-16=4 so a=20
Therefore the two numbers are 16 and 20
