Answer:

Let the no. be X and Y

X - Y = (-1)

X + Y = 1

X = (-1)+ Y

X = 1 - y

- 1.+ y = 1 - y

Y + Y = 1 + 1

2y = 2

Y = 1

X = 0

Answer:

x = 0 (first number), y = 1 (second number)

Step-by-step explanation:

x will represent the first number, and y will represent the second.

x - y = -1

x + y = 1

Now, it's time to get y by itself in one equation so that we can substitute.

x - y = -1 (subtract x from both sides)

-y = -1 - x (multiply both sides by -1)

y = x + 1

Plug in x + 1 for y in the second equation.

x + x + 1 = 1 (combine the x with the x)

2x + 1 = 1 (subtract 1 from both sides)

2x = 0 (divide both sides by 2)

x = 0

Since x = 0, we can plug 0 in for x into any equation to solve for y.

0 + y = 1

y = 1
