Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

#1

so 1st integer=35 and 1st integer=31

x=4+y

x+y=66

4+2y=66

2y=62

y=31

x=4+31

x=35

#2

1st integer = x 2nd integer = x - 8

(x) + (x - 8) = 50

x + x - 8 = 50

2x - 8 = 50

2x = 58

x= 29

so 1st integer = x = 29

and 2nd integer = x - 8 = 29 - 8 = 21
