Question

Please i need HELP x+y=15 , x-y=3 and

Answer 1

Answer:

x=9

y=6

Step-by-step explanation:

x+y=15 .............(i)

x-y=3...........(ii)

Subtracting equation (ii) from equation (i)

or,  x+y -(x-y)=15-3

or,  x+y-x+y=12

or,  2y=12

or,  y=12/2

∴y=6

Now,

       Putting the value of y on equation (i),

or,  x+6=15

or,  x=15-6

∴x=9
