Question

solve the simultaneous equation :x+y=14;x-y= 2​

Answer 1

Answer:

x=8,y=6

Step-by-step explanation:

adding the equations we get

x+y+x-y=16

2x=16

x=8

y=6

Answer 2

Answer:

Question :-

solve the simultaneous equation :x+y=14;x-y= 2

Answer:-

• The value of x is 8.
• The value of y is 6.

Given:-

• x+y = 14.........(1)
• x - y = 2......(2)

To find:-

• Find x and y

Solution:-

$\implies \: x - y = 2 \\ \\ \implies \: x = 2 + y..............(3)$

Put the eq 3 in eq 1.

$\implies \: (2 + y) + y = 14 \\ \\ \implies \:2 + 2y = 14 \\ \\ \implies \:2y = 14 - 2 \\ \\ \implies \:y = \frac{12}{2} = 6$

put value of y in eq 3.

$\implies \:x = 2 + y \\ \\ \implies \:x = 2 + 6 \\ \\ \implies \:x = 8$

Hence,

The value of x is 8.

The value of y is 6.
