x+y=10 (1)x^2-y^2=40 (2)
From equation (1), we can express y in terms of x:y=10-x
Substitute y in equation (2):x^2 - (10-x)^2 = 40x^2 - (100 - 20x + x^2) = 40x^2 - 100 + 20x - x^2 = 4020x - 100 = 4020x = 140x = 7
Substitute x back into equation (1) to find y:7 + y = 10y = 3
Therefore, the solution to the system of equations is:x = 7y = 3
x+y=10 (1)
x^2-y^2=40 (2)
From equation (1), we can express y in terms of x:
y=10-x
Substitute y in equation (2):
x^2 - (10-x)^2 = 40
x^2 - (100 - 20x + x^2) = 40
x^2 - 100 + 20x - x^2 = 40
20x - 100 = 40
20x = 140
x = 7
Substitute x back into equation (1) to find y:
7 + y = 10
y = 3
Therefore, the solution to the system of equations is:
x = 7
y = 3
