Answer:

8 or 17

Step-by-step explanation:

The system of equations for this is:

x = 9 + y

x + y = 25

Find the value of y by plugging the first equation into the second.

9 + y + y = 25

9 + 2y = 25

2y = 16

y = 8

One of the numbers is 8.

OR

Find the value of x by plugging the value of y into one o the equations.

x = 9 + 8

x = 17

or

x + 8 = 25

x = 17  

One of the numbers is 17.
