Help !!!

Use guess and check to find the solution to the system of equations

x+y=8
x-y= 6​

Answer 1

x+y=8

x-y= 6​

2x=14

x=14/2 =7

x+y=8

7+y=8

y=8-7=1

Explanation:

Answer 2

x = 7

y = 1

Explanation:

x + y = 8 ... [1]

x - y = 6 ... [2]

------------- (+)

2x = 14

x = 7

[1]

x + y = 8

7 + y = 8

y = 8 - 7

= 1
