Answers
(a) Let the sum of x + y = 48 (Equation 1)
and, the difference x - y = 10 (Equation 2)
Firstly, let me take the value of Equation 2 as x
∴ x = 10 + y
Now, writing the first Equation
x + y = 48
We have the value of x i.e 10 + y
∴ Subsisting Values
⟹ 10 + y + y = 48
⟹ 10 + 2y = 48
⟹ 2y = 48 - 10
⟹ 2y = 38
⟹ y = 19
Now, let's substitute Equation 1
⟹ x + y = 48
⟹ x + 19 = 48
⟹ x = 48 - 19
⟹ x = 29
Thus, Proved also
x + y = 48
⟹ 29 + 19 = 48
x - y = 10
⟹ 29 - 19 = 10
(b) Let the sum of x + y = 34 (Equation 1)
and, the difference x - y = 8 (Equation 2)
Firstly, let me take the value of Equation 2 as x
∴ x = 8 + y
Now, writing the first Equation
x + y = 34
We have the value of x i.e 8 + y
∴ Subsisting Values
⟹ 8 + y + y = 34
⟹ 8 + 2y = 34
⟹ 2y = 34 - 8
⟹ 2y = 26
⟹ y = 13
Now, let's substitute Equation 1
⟹ x + y = 34
⟹ x + 13 = 34
⟹ x = 34 - 13
⟹ x = 21
Thus, Proved also
x + y = 34
⟹ 21 + 13 = 34
x - y = 10
⟹ 21 - 13 = 8
