y=10-xy=10x

Explanation:

x+y=10x+y=10

There is a property, named as Subtraction Property of Equality, which states that if a number is subtracted from both the sides of a equation, then the equation is unaffected.

We are going to use that property.

Subtract color(red)xx from both sides of the equation.

The equation becomes,
x+y-color(red)(x)=10-color(red)(x)x+yx=10x
implies cancelx+y-color(red)cancelcolor(red)(x)=10-color(reD)x
implies y=10-x
