Answer: The two numbers are 39 and 26
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the numbers be x and y
From the information given,
x + y = 65...........equation 1
x - y = 13............equation 2
2x = 78
Divide both sides by 2
x = 78/2
x = 39
Insert the value of x into equation 1
39 + y = 65
Subtract 39 from from both sides
39 - 39 + y = 65 -39
y = 26
The two numbers are 39 and 26.
