Answer:
The first number is 32 and the second is 26
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the two numbers be represented by x and y
1) x + y = 58
2) x - y = 6
x = 6 + y, we'll use put this in the first equation.
x + y = 58
6 + y + y = 58
6 + 2y = 58
2y = 58 - 6
2y = 52
2. 2
y=26, now let's find x, again use the first equation
x + y = 58
x + 26 = 58
x = 58 - 26
x = 32
