    X + y = 17

    x - y = 29

    x = 17 - y

    x - y = 29

    x = 17 - y

    17 - y - y = 29

    x = 17 - y

    17 - 2y = 29

    x = 17 - y

    - 2y = 29 - 17

    x = 17 - y

    -2y = 12

    x = 17 - y

    y = - 6

    x = 17 - (-6)

    y = - 6

    x = 17 + 6

    y = - 6

    x = 23

    y = - 6
