To solve this system of equations, we can use the method of elimination.
Adding the two equations together, we get:
(х - у) + (х + у) = 5 + 7 2х = 12
Dividing both sides of the equation by 2, we find:
х = 6
Substituting this value of х into one of the original equations, we have:
6 + у = 7
Simplifying, we find:
у = 1
Therefore, the solution to the system of equations is х = 6 and у = 1.
