What is the system of two equations?
A set of two linear equations with two variables is called a system of linear equations. They create a system of linear equations when evaluated collectively.
The given equation in the problem is;
Equation P: a - b = 9
Equation Q: a+b=5
The value obtained from the equation P is;
a - b = 9
a=b+9
Substitute the value in the equation Q;
a+b=5
b+9+b=5
2b=9-5
b=2
The value of a is;
a-b=9
a-2=9
a=9+2
a=11
Hence the value of a and b will be 11 and 2.
