Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first number be x and the second number be y, from the statement

x + y = 8 ....... equation i

x - y = 6  ..... equation ii

Solving the two equations

Add i and ii

⇒ 2x = 14

     x = 7

substitute x = 7 into equation 1

⇒ 7 + y =8

         y = 1

therefore the two integers are 7 and 1
