Answer:

15 and - 26

Step-by-step explanation:

let x and y be the 2 numbers , x > y

x + y = - 11 → (1)

x - y = 41 → (2)

Add the 2 equations term by term to eliminate y

2x = 30 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 15

Substitute x = 15 into either of the 2 equations and solve for y

Substituting into (1)

15 + y = - 11 ( subtract 15 from both sides )

y = - 26

The 2 numbers are 15 and - 26
