Answer:

Our two numbers are 50 and 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum means add together

Difference means subtract each other

x + y = 70

x - y = 30

subtract from each other

2x = 100

divide both sides by 2

x = 50

our first number is 50

50 + y = 70

subtract both sides by 50

y = 20

Our two numbers are 50 and 20
