Let's see what to do buddy...

____________________________

Reminder:


(a + b)(a - b) = {a}^(2) - {b}^(2)

So we need to just Multiply above equations like this :


x + y = 70


x - y = 40


(x + y)(x - y) = 70 * 40


{x}^(2) - {y}^(2) = 2800

____________________________

And we're done.

Thanks for watching buddy good luck.
