OpenStudy (aravindg):

jitesh what difficulty you have here ? Isnt it simply solving a system of linear equations?

OpenStudy (aravindg):

i got the answer by observation !!

I can't do it by any method :(

hartnn (hartnn):

A general way to solve the questions of the form ax+by=c bx+ay =d First add the 2 equations : (a+b) x + (a+b) y = (c+d) ----> x+y = (c+d)/(a+b) ---->(3) Then, subtract the 2 equations, (a-b) x + (b-a) y = (c-d) ---->x-y = (c-d)/(a-b) ---->(4) now, from 3, and 4 , you have x+y and x-y, which is very easy to solve, can you ?
