Solve x and y : x + y = 15 and x - y = 5

1.	Solve x and y : x + y = 15 and x - y = 5
Answer» x+y=15........(i)x-y=5.........(ii),From equation (ii), we getx=5+y Put the value of x in equation (i),we get5+y+y=152y=15-5y=10/2=5Now, put the value of y in equation (ii), we getx-5=5x=5+5=10:.x=10 and y=5 Adding by eliminTion method=2x=20X=10Putting in 1 eq x+y=15Y=15-10 = 5
