Let the two numbers be ( x ) and ( y ), where ( x - y = 9 ) and ( x + y = 137 ). By solving these equations simultaneously, we can express ( x ) as ( y + 9 ). Substituting this into the second equation gives ( (y + 9) + y = 137 ), leading to ( 2y + 9 = 137 ). Solving for ( y ) results in ( y = 64 ) and consequently ( x = 73 ). Thus, the two numbers are 73 and 64.
