x-y=2
x=y+2 (put in equation second.)
2x-y=8
2(y+2) -y=8
2y+4-y=8
2y-y=8-4
y=4
x=y+2 y=4 (put the value of y in this equation)
x=4+2
X=6

Given:-
- x + y = 8
- x - y = 2
To find:-
Values of y and x.
Solution:-
By adding the equations:-
→x + y = 8
→x - y = 2
So,
2x = 10
x = 10/2
x = 5
By substituting the equations:-
→x + y = 8
→5 + y = 8
→y = 8 - 5
→y = 3
Hence, y = 3And, x = 5.
