    29 and 20 are such integers.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let one of the two integers = m

    let other integer = n

    Now, since sum of two integers = 49

    ⇒ m + n = 49 ... (1)

    The difference of two integers = 9

    ⇒ m - n = 9 ... (2)

    Solving both the equations:

    Add equations (1) and (2), we get

    2 m = 58

    or, m = 58 / 2 = 29

    or, m = 29

    So, one of the integers = m = 29

    Now, the other integer is n = 49 - m = 49 - 29 = 20

    or, n = 29

    Hence, 20 and 29 are such integers.
