There are two ways to solve this, the first is known as combination and is far easier. so,

a + b = 75

a - b = 13

add up both equations vertically. There are 2 a's, the b's cancel out, and the sum becomes 88.

2a = 88

a = 44

now that we have the value of a, plug that value into one of the two equations and u will c that the value is 31.

so 44 and 31
