\bold{Answer}


\boxed{\bold{Y \ = \ 1, \ X \ = \ 5}}


\bold{Explanation}


  • \bold{Use \ Elimination \ Method: \ \begin{bmatrix}x+y=6\\ x-y=4\end{bmatrix}}


\bold{----------------}


  • \bold{Isolate \ x \ for \ x+y=6: \ x=6-y}


\bold{Substitute \ X \ = \ 6 \ - \ y}


\bold{\begin{bmatrix}6-y-y=4\end{bmatrix}}


  • \bold{isolate \ y \ for \ 6-y-y=4: \ Y \ = \ 1}


\bold{For \ x=6-y}


\bold{Substitute \ y \ = \ 1}


\bold{6-1=5}


\bold{x=5}


\boxed{\bold{Eclipsed}}
