Question

8x+5y 9 and 3x+2y =4 (substitution method)​

Answer 1

Answer:

8x+5y=9----(1)

3x+2y=4----(2)

x=9-5y÷8

putting x value in equation (2)

3(9-5y÷8)+2y=4

(27-15÷8)+2y=4

(27-15+16y÷8)=4

(27-15+16y)=32

16y=32+12

y=44÷16

y=11/4

put y value in

x=9-5y÷8

x=9-5×11/4÷8

x=-38

so x=-38 and y=11/4
