Question

The sum of two number is 14 and their difference is 2. Find the numbers. 

X+Y= 14

X-Y= 2

Solve the simultaneously equation and find y​

Answer 1

x=8,y=2

Step-by-step explanation:

x+y = 14

x-y = 2

Add the system of equations.

2x = 16

x= 8

Substitute into equation 1.

x+y=14

8+y=14

y=6

Check the solutions by using equation 2

x-y=2

8-6=2

2=2

Answer 2

Answer:

x + y = 14 . . . . . (equation 1)

x - y = 2 . . . . . . (equation 2)

adding (equation 1) and (equation 2)

x = 6

put the value of x = 6 in (equation 1)

x + y = 14

6 + y = 14

y = 14 - 6

y = 8
