Hi,
what is the x and y if this pls show answer and the steps :)
1/2(x-y)=2 || |Multiplying thru by 2 so as all denominators = 1
1/2(x+y)+1=0
(x-y)= 4 |||Result of Multiplying thru by 2 so as all denominators= 1
(x+y)+2=0
x- y = 4 |||Adding EQs in order ot eliminate the y variable
x+ y = -2
2x = 2
x = 1 and y = -3
Ordered pair(x,y) that is the solution for this system is (1,-3)
