AnswEr
The value of x = 0 and y = -3
Solution
By elimination method
Given the equations are
3x - 2y = 6 _________(1)
and
4x - 2y = 6 _________(2)
Subtracting (2) from (1) we have ,
⇒3x - 2y -(4x - 2y) = 6 - 6
⇒3x - 2y - 4x + 2y = 0
⇒ -x = 0
⇒ x = 0
Putting the value of x in equation (1) we have
⇒3(0) - 2y = 6
⇒ -2y = 6
⇒ y = -3

By substitution method
The given equations are
3x - 2y = 6 --------->(1)
and
4x - 2y = 6 ---------->(2)
Taking (1) we have
3x - 2y = 6
⇒ 3x = 6 + 2y
⇒ x = (6 +2y)/3 ----------->(3)
Putting the value of x in (2) we have 4×{(6+2y)/3} - 2y = 6
⇒{ 4×(6 + 2y) - 6y}/3= 6
⇒24 + 8y - 6y = 6×3
⇒ 2y = 18 - 24
⇒ 2y = - 6
⇒ y = -3
Putting the value of y in (1) we have ⇒ 3x - 2(-3) = 6
⇒ 3x + 6 = 6
⇒ 3x = 6 - 6
⇒ 3x = 0
⇒ x = 0
