Question

x-y=8 x+y=50



Find x and y​

Answer 1

X-Y=8,X+Y=50,2X=58,X=29,y=50-29=21

Answer 2

Answer:

x = 29

y = 21

Solution:

Here,

The given equations are :

x - y = 8 ------(1)

x + y = 50 -----(2)

Adding eq-(1) and (2) , we get ;

=> x - y + x + y = 8 + 50

=> 2x = 58

=> x = 58/2

=> x = 29

Now,

Putting x = 29 in eq-(2) , we have ;

=> x + y = 50

=> 29 + y = 50

=> y = 50 - 29

=> y = 21

Hence,

x = 29

y = 21
