➥ x = 8/3, y = 25/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
- Two equations: 3x + 4 = 12 and y = 2x + 3 are given.
To find:
- We need to find the value of x and y by solving the given equations.
Solution:
☯ Considering the first equation:
⇒ 3x + 4 = 12
⇒ 3x = 12 - 4
⇒ 3x = 8
⇒ x = 8/3
☯ Considering the second equation:
⇒ y = 2x + 3
⇒ y = 2 × 8/3 + 3
⇒ y = 16/3 + 3
⇒ y = (16 + 9)/3
⇒ y = 25/3
☯ Therefore, the values of x and y are 8/3 and 25/3.
Verification:
☯ Let's verify the first equation to check whether the value of x is right or wrong.
⇒ 3x + 4 = 12
[Substituting x = 8/3]
⇒ 3(8/3) + 4 = 12
[3 gets cancelled here.]
⇒ 8 + 4 = 12
⇒ 12 = 12 [LHS = RHS]
☯ Hence verified!
