    x = - 52

    y = - 11

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let 1st number = x

    Let 2nd number = y

    Hence:

    x+y=-63

    x-y=-41

    y = x+41

    (Apply Simultaneous Equations)

    x + (x+41) = -63

    2x+41=-63

    2x=-63-41

    2x=-104

    x=-104/2

    x=-52

    Now:

    y=-52+41

    y=-11
