Answer:

The two numbers are 12 and -29

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x and y be the two numbers

x+y = -17

x - y = 41

Add the two equations together

x+y = -17

x - y = 41

----------------

2x = 24

Divide by 2

x = 12

Now find y

x+y = -17

12 +y = -17

Subtract 12 from each side

y = -17-12

y = -29
