Answer:
15 and - 26
Explanation:
let x and y be the 2 numbers , x > y
x + y = - 11 → (1)
x - y = 41 → (2)
Add the 2 equations term by term to eliminate y
2x = 30 ( divide both sides by 2 )
x = 15
Substitute x = 15 into either of the 2 equations and solve for y
Substituting into (1)
15 + y = - 11 ( subtract 15 from both sides )
y = - 26
The 2 numbers are 15 and - 26
