Hey there!

Let's set up a system of equations to find our answer. We will use x and y, with y being the larger 1.

y=x+8

x²+y²=104

We plug our value for y into the second equation and we get that y is equal to two. We can then plug this into the first equation and we get 10.

Our two numbers are two and ten.

I hope this helps!

Let's plug our y value into the second equation.

x²+x²+64=104
