Answer:

The numbers are 5 and 1.

Explanation:

First, define your variables.


x=first number\\y=second number

Next, use the information given to make the linear system.


x+y=6\\x-y=4

Finally, use elimination to solve for the first number then substitute to find the second number.


x+y=6\\x-y=4\\-------


2x=10\\x=5


5+y=6\\y=1
