"Two numbers have a sum of 32" means that x+y=32. If one of those numbers is t, then x = t and t+y=32. Solve for y to get y = 32-t

So the other number is 32-t

"Two numbers have a sum of 32. One of the numbers is t. Find the other number. "

If they add up to 32, and one is t......subtract t from 32 to get the other number
= a.) 32 - t
