To find two numbers with a sum of 17 and a difference of 5, you can set up the equations: ( x + y = 17 ) and ( x - y = 5 ). Solving these, you can add the two equations to eliminate ( y ), resulting in ( 2x = 22 ), so ( x = 11 ). Substituting ( x ) back into the sum equation gives ( y = 6 ). Thus, the two numbers are 11 and 6.
