The right answer for the question that is being asked and shown above is that:
Two numbers have a sum of 71 and a difference of 37
x + y = 71
x - y = 37
So in order to get the two numbers, here it is:
x + y = 71
x - y = 37
------------
2x = 108
x = 54
y = 71 - 54
y = 17
So the two numbers are 54 and 17
