Hey!

For this question you will have to make a simultaneous equation.

Let one integer be x, and the other y.

First equation: x-y= -11

or x= -11+y

Second equation: x+y= -3

substituting from the 1st equation: -11+y+y= -3

or 2y= 11-3

or y=4

x= -11+4

x=-7

Hope this helped….

The two integers are -7 and 4.

-7-4= -11

-7+4= -3
