Step-by-step explanation:
Given
-3x +5y = 7..... equ (1)
2ax -3y = 1.......equ (2)
multiply equ (1) by 3 Nd equ( 2) by 5 we get
-9x + 15y = 21
10ax - 15y = 5
..........................
ax = 26
x= 26/a
putting value of x in equ 2 we get
2ax -3y = 1
2a(26/a) -3y = 1
52-3y =1
52 - 1 = 3y
51 = 3y
y = 51/3
y = 17
putting y = 17 in eq 1 we get
-3x + 5 y = 7
-3x + 5(17) = 7
-3x +85 = 7
-3x = 7 - 85
-3x = -78
x = 78/3
x = 26
putting x = 26 in equ x = 26/a we get
26 = 26/ a
by cross multiplication
26a = 26
a = 26/26
a = 1
