    Answer: 28 and 18

    Step-by-step explanation:

    I used the guess and test strategy to find that:

    28 - 10 = 18

    28 + 18 = 46

    X + y = 46

    x - y = 10

    *add these 2 equations

    x + y + x - y = 46 + 10

    2x = 56

    x = 28

    x - y = 10

    28 - y = 10

    *subtract 28 from both sudes

    - y = 10 - 28

    *multiply by - 1

    y = 28 - 10

    y = 18
