Question

If (x+3, 2) = (4, y-3) then the values of x and y are _________.​

Answer 1

Answer:

x+3 = 4 y-3 = 2

x = 4-3 y = 2+3

x = 1 y = 5

Therefore, the values of x and y are 1 and 5

Answer 2

If (x+3, 2) = (4, y-3) then the values of x and y are 1 and 5 respectively.

It is given to us that (x+3, 2) = (4, y-3).

From the above mathematical statement it is clear that-

x + 3 = 4 and 2 = y - 3.

Let us first find the value of x.

⇒  x + 3 = 4.

To find the value of x we can shift + 3 from LHS to RHS and after that step, we would get,

⇒   x = 4 - 3.

⇒   x = 1.

Now, we need to find the value of y.

⇒   2 = y -3.

To find the value of y we can shift -3 from RHS to LHS and after that step, we will get,

⇒   2 + 3 = y

⇒   5 = y.

Hence, we have found that x = 1 and y = 5.
