2x-5y=4 , 3x-8y=5 cross multiplication
Answers
Answer:
2x-5y = 4 ----(1)
3x-8y = 5 ----(2)
(1)×3 = 6x-15y = 12 ----(3)
(2)×2 = 6x-16y = 10 ----(4)
Equation (4) - (3) = >> -y = -2
=>> y = 2
Substituting value of y in eq.(1)
2x-5(2) = 4
2x-10 = 4
2x = 4+10
2x = 14
x = 7
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
2x-5y=4 , 3x-8y=5 (linear equation)
To solve this problem, first you have to solve with substitution of linear equation.
Solutions:
First, you have to isolate by the x on one side of the equation.
Add by 5y from both sides of an equation.
Solve.
Secondly, divide by 2 from both sides of an equation.
Solve.
Solve with (substitute of x=4+5y/2.)
Isolate by the y on one side of the equation.
Expand by using distributive property.
Then, multiply by 2 from both sides.
Solve.
Multiply the numbers from left to right.
Subtract by 12 from both sides of an equation.
Solve.
Add or subtract the numbers from left to right.
Divide by -1 from both sides of an equation.
Solve.
Divide the numbers from left to right.
Solve with (substitute of 4+5y/2 and y=2.)
Used order of operations.
PEMDAS stands for (Parenthesis, Exponents, Multiply, Divide, Add, and Subtract) the numbers from left to right.
First, multiply.
Add.
Hence, the correct answer is y=2 and x=7.
