The sum of two numbers is 46 and the difference is 14. What are the numbers?

Answer:
30 and 16
Step-by-step explanation:
x + y = 46
14 + y + y = 46
14 + 2y = 46
2y = 32
y = 16
Now we know y is 16. Which means that we can substitute y for 16 in equation A and solve for x:
x + y = 46
x + 16 = 46
X = 30
