Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Equation 1 : x + y = 14
Equation 2 : x - y = 4
Here,
- a₁ = 1
- a₂ = 1
- b₁ = 1
- b₂ = -1
- c₁ = 14
- c₂ = 4
For the equations to be consistent, it must satisfy the following cases.
Case 1:
If a₁ / a₂ ≠ b₁ / b₂ then the following are consistent.
In this case, 1 / 1 ≠ 1 / -1
Hence this case works.
Since it works, the solutions are consistent.
Finding Solutions:
Adding both the equations, we get,
⇒ x + y + x - y = 14 + 4
⇒ 2x + 0y = 18
⇒ 2x = 18
⇒ x = 18/2 = 9
Substituting the value of x in any of the equations we get,
⇒ x + y = 14
⇒ 9 + y = 14
⇒ y = 14 - 9
⇒ y = 5
Hence the values of x and y are 9 and 5 respectively.
