Answer:3a+5b=26
3a=26-5b
a=26-5b/3...................(1)
a+5b=22................(2)
Substituting equations (1)in (2)
We get,
26-5b/3+5b=22
26-5b+15b/3=22
26+10b=22x3
26+10b=66
10b=66-26
10b=40
b=40/10
b=4
Putting b=4in equations (1)
We get,
a=26-5(4)/3
a=26-20/3
a=6/3
a=2
There for a=2
b=4

Question:
Solve the Following Simultaneous Equation.
3a + 5b = 26;
a + 5b = 22
Step-by-step explanation:
3a + 5b = 26 ___(l)
a + 5b = 22 ___(ll)
Subtracting (ll) from (l)
2a = 4
a = 2
Putting the value of a = 2 in (ll)
a + 5b = 22
⇒ 2 + 5b = 22
⇒ 5b = 20
⇒ b = 4
