    Answer: 6; 5

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Based on the questions, we set up two equations, let the x be the first number, and y be the second number.

    x + y = 11

    2x – y= 7

    x = 11 – y              [Subtract y from both side]

    2x – y = 7

    2(11 – y) – y = 7    [Plug in 11-y for x, solve for y]

    22 – 2y – y = 7  

    22 – 3y = 7        

    -3y = -15             [Subtract 22 from both side]

      y = 5

     

    x + y = 11             [Plug in 5 for y, solve for x]

    x + 5 = 11             [Subtract 5 from both side]

         x = 6
