Question

X+y=0.5
x-y=1
elimination meathod

Answer 1

`x=0.75, y=-0.25`

Explanation:

We can add the two equations to eliminate
`y` and solve for
`x`.

`x+y+x-y=0.5+1`

`2x=1.5`

`x=0.75`

Now, we can find for
`y` by using substitution:

`x+y=0.5` (given)

`0.75+y=0.5`

`y=-0.25`

Hope this helps :)
