solve({a>5,a+b=5})

To improve solving, you can rearrange the equations:

[1]:

a + b = 5

[2]:

a > 5

Let's solve for a:

a + b = 5

[1]

Solution obtained [1]:

a = 5 - b

Let's solve for b:

a > 5

[2] where

a = 5 - b

5 - b > 5

ⓘ We gather the terms in

b

on the right and the other terms on the left

5 - 5 > b

ⓘ Start from

5

and move back

5

on the number line, down to zero:

5 - 5

0

0 > b

Solution obtained [2]:

b < 0

▶Solution:

{a = 5 - b, b < 0}
