Question

x+y = 16 and x-y = 6 then find the value of x​

Answer 1

Answer:

x is 11

y is 5

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y = 16 ---(1)

x - y = 6

x = y + 6 ---(2)

put value of x in eq.--(1)

y + 6 + y = 16

2y + 6 = 16

2y = 16 - 6

2y = 10

y = 10/2

y = 5

put value of y in eq.--(2)

x = 5 + 6

x = 11

Answer 2

Answer:

x = 11 y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y = 16 ( 1 )

x - y = 6 ( 2 )

adding 1 and 2 we get 2x = 22

therefore, x = 11 y = 5
