Solution

Dear student solution is correct.
your query is how you get values of a and b so see
We have
a+b=13 ....(1)
-a+b=3. ....(2)
Now from (1)
b=13-a
From (2)
b=3+a
now equating both values of b
13-a=3+a
rightwards double arrow 10 equals 2 straight a rightwards double arrow straight a equals 5 so space from space left parenthesis 1 right parenthesis straight b equals 13 minus straight a space equals 13 minus 5 equals 8
I hope you get the solution now
