Answer:
x=7 and y=7
Step-by-step explanation:
x+y=14 -(1)
x-y=0 -(2)
Adding eq 1 and 2
(x+y)+(x-y)=14+0
x+x+y-y=14
2x=14
x=14/2
x=7
Now, putting the value of x in eq 1
7+y=14
y=14-7
y=7

Heya,
Given=> x + y = 14. equation 1
x - y = 4. equation 2
Now, we will solve it by substitution method;
Let's take equation 1 =>
x + y = 14
x = 14 - y
Put the value of x in equation 2=>
x - y = 4
=> 14 - y - y = 4
=> 2y = 14 - 4
=> y = 10/2
=> y = 5
Now, put the value of y in equation 1 =>
x + y = 14
=> x + 5 = 14
=> x = 9
Therefore the value of x = 9 and y = 5
Hope this helps :)
