Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Givens
x + y = 2
x - y = 6
Solution
Just add the two equations together. The y's will drop out.
x + y = 2
<u>x - y = 6 </u> Add
2x = 8 Divide by 2
2x/2 = 8/2 Combine
x = 4 Substitute x = 4 into the top equation
x + y = 2
4 + y = 2 Subtract 4 from both sides
4-4+y=2-4 Combine
y = - 2
Answer
x = 4
y = -2
Answer:
(13+9)+4=26

the order of numbers in an addition problems doesn't affect the Sum
Step-by-step explanation:
3x - 9 +2x + 9 = 2x - 2
5x = 2x - 2
5x - 2x = - 2
3x = - 2
x= - 2/ 3
