Question

find the solution of the pair of equation. 8x-2y=14 and 6x-4y=8
​

Answer 1

Answer:

x=2 and y=1

Step-by-step explanation:

8x-2y=14

8x=14+2y by transposing method

x=(14+2y)/8 equation 1

6x-4y=8

6x=8+4y

x=(8+4y)/6 equation 2

putting x value

(8+4y)/6=(14+2y)/8

8×(8+4y)=6× (14+2y) by cross multiplication

64+32y=84+12y

32y-12y=84-64

20y=20

y=20/20

y=1

equation 1

8x-2y=14

8x-2×1=14

8x-2=14

8x=14+2

8x=16

x=16/8

x=2
