    x=0

    y=-21/7

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let the two unknown be x and y

    x+y=-7 ... (1)

    x-y=14 ... (2)

    From (1) make x the subject of formula

    x=-7-y ... (3)

    Substitute (3) into (2)

    -7-y-y=14

    -7-2y=14

    Add 7 to both sides

    -2y=21

    Add both sides by-2

    y=-21/2

    Substitute the value of y into (3)

    x=-7 - (-21/2)

    x=-7+21/3

    Lcm

    x=-21+21/3

    x=0/3

    x=0
