By elimination method solve 7x+3y-8=0 3x-4y-14=0
Answers
Answer:
x=2 y=-2
Step-by-step explanation:
7x+3y-8=0
Multiply the above equation by 4 times which gives the below equation
28x+12y-32=0
3x-4y-14=0 Multiply this equation by 3 times which gives
9x-12y-42=0
Now add both equations which gives
37x=74
x=2
Now substitute this in any equation
7(2)+3y=8
3y=8-14
3y=-6
y=-2
Hope it helps
Answer:
◘ 7x + 3y - 8 = 0, 3x - 4y - 14 = 0 by elimination method.
7x + 3y - 8 = 0
7x + 3y = 8 . . . . (1)
3x - 4y - 14 = 0
3x - 4y = 14 . . . . (2)
✯ Multiply equation (1) by 3 and (2) by 7, we get
21x + 9y = 24 . . . . (3)
21x - 28y = 98 . . . . (4)
❖ Adding (3) and (4) we get,
21x + 9y = 24
21x - 28y = 98
(-) (+) (-)
______________
37y = - 74
y = - 74/37
y = - 2
❃ Substituting the value of y = - 2 in equation (1) we get,
★ 7x + 3y = 8
➭ 7x + 3(- 2) = 8
➭ 7x - 6 = 8
➭ 7x = 8 + 6
➭ 7x = 14
➭ x = 14/7
➭ x = 2
∴ The value of x = 2, y = - 2 is the solution of the system of the given equations.
