    39 and 50. 2x+11=89. 89-11=78 78/2 = 39 39+11=50

    Jerry has a number of 39, and Mary has a number of 50.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let's say mary's number is x, and jerry's is y.

    x-y=11 and y+x=89. This means if we subtract 11 from 89 we get jerry's number times 2, which is 78. 78 divided by 2 is 39.

    Jerry has a number of 39

    and Mary has a number of 50.
