Question

5x + 2y = 16 and 17x - 3y = 34 therefore the value of x and y is​

Answer 1

Answer:

let 5x + 2y =16 .........(1)

and 17x - 3y = 34.......(2)

now multiply eqn(1) by 3 and eqn(2) by 2

therefore new equations are

15x +6y = 48........(3)

34x - 6y =68..........(4)

now adding eqn(3) and (4)

15x + 6y = 48

+ 34x - 6y = 68
