Question 525598


Let
First Number = x
Second Number = y

x+y=-63........(1)
x-y=41.........(2)

Add (1) to (2)

x+y=-63
x-y=41
-------------
2x=-22
2x/2=-22/2
x=-11

Put the value of x in (1)

x+y=-63
-11+y=-63
y=-63+11
y=-52

First Number = x = -11
Second Number = y = -52



Check
==========
Two numbers when added equal negative 63
-11-52=-63
-63=-63
The second number is subtracted from the first they equal negative 41.

-11-(-52)=41
-11+52=41
41=41
