The equations are

$\"\"$

$\"\"$ $\"\"$

Since the coefficients of the y-terms, +1 and +1, are same,

you can eliminate these terms by subtracting the equations. .

Subtract the equations to eliminate variable y.

$\"\"$ (Write the equations in column form and subtract)

$\"\"$

Now Substitute $\"\"$ for x in either equation to find the value of y.

$\"\"$ (Equation 1)

$\"\"$ (Zero propduct property: $\"\"$ )

$\"\"$ (Apply additive identity property: $\"\"$ )

The solution is $\"\"$ . $\"\"$

The solution is $\"\"$ .
