x - y = 3 ....(i)| Anu said: (Mar 22, 2011) | |
| How is (i) and (ii) solved and we get answer as 4?? | |
| Anu said: (Jun 23, 2011) | |
| 2x=8; so x=4 ie.,(x+x)(-y+y) (3+5) | |
| Caroline said: (Sep 8, 2011) | |
| x - y = 3 x + y =5 --------------- 2x =8 Therefore, x = 4. |

| 3 (x-y) = 27. x-y = 27/3. x-y = 9 ----- (1). 3 (x+y) = 243. x+y = 243/3. x+y = 81 ----- (2). (x+y) = 81. (x-y) = 9. ------------- 2y = 72. y = 72/2 = 36. y = 36. x-y = 9. x-36 = 9. x = 36/9. x = 4. |

| x-y = 3 x+y = 5 ________ 2x = 8 ________ 2x/2 = 8/2. x = 8/2. i.e x = 4. |

| We used simultaneous equation in solving that, we find for x then y before we can get the final answer. | |
| Arjun said: (Mar 27, 2015) | |
| How we can find the power? Is there any short technique by which we can find easily? |

| I can't got this answer. Please anyone explain it in detail. Why we cut y? |

| Why 2x is equal to 8? | |
| Shahjahan said: (Aug 15, 2016) | |
| (x - y) + (x + y) = 3 + 5, (x + x) - (y + y) = 8, 2x = 8, x = 4. |

| How to solve the y? Don't get it, Please explain it clearly. | |

| The simultaneous equation as in; x-y=3 x1. x+y=-5 x-1. y will be 0 which is always ignored after addition, we get; 2x=8. where x =4. |

| This is a simultaneous equation. x-y= 3 ---> (i) x+y=5 ---> (ii) From eqn (i), we first make x the subject by adding y to both sides; => x-y+y=3+y, => x=3+y ---> (iii). Substituting value of x from eqn (iii) in eqn (ii),we get (3+y)+y=5, => 3+2y=5, => 3-3+2y=5-3, => 2y=2, Therefore, y=1 ---> (iv). Substituting eqn (iv) in eqn (iii), => x=3+1. Therefore, X= 4. |

| (x-y) + (x+y) = 3+5, x+x - y-y = 8, 2x-0 = 8, 2x = 8, x = 8/2, x = 4. |
|
| Ednan Malik said: (Dec 30, 2018) | |
| (x-y)+(x+y) = 3+5, (x+x-y+y) = 8, 2x+0 = 8, 2x = 8, x = 8/2, x = 4, Therefore x=4. |

| 5x-5y = 3x+3y 5x-3x = 3y+5y 2x = 8y X ÷ y = 8 ÷ 2 so, X = 4,y = 1. |

| 1 .3^(x - Y ) = 27. 3^(x - Y ) = 3^3. Base are equal. So, (x - Y ) = 3 --------------------> 1. 2. 3^( x + y ) = 243. 3^( x + y ) = 3^5. Base are equal, So, ( x + y ) = 5 --------------------> 2. Solve 1 & 2. X + Y = 3. X - Y = 5. ---------------------- 2x. = 8. X = 8/2. So, X = 4. |
