Question

solve x+y=14 and x-y=2
​

Answer 1

Answer:

x+y = 14

x-y = 2

subtracting both we get

2y = 12

y = 6

substituting y

x + 6 = 14

x = 14-6

x = 8

Answer 2

Given:

x + y = 14 _____ ( i )

x - y = 2 _____ ( ii )

To Find:

The value of x and y.

Explanation:

By adding eq.(i) and eq.(ii), we get

2x = 16

or, x = 16/2 = 8

The value of x is 8 .

By substituting the value of x in eq.(i), we get

8 + y = 14

or, y = 14 - 8 = 6

The value of y is 6.

Answer:

The value of x and y is 8 and 6 respectively.
