Question

How to solve eq.1=2x+5y=17,eq.2=5x+3y=14 by substitution method

Answer 1

Answer:

y=3; x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

eq 1: 2x+5y=17

eq2 :5x+3y=14

lets take eq 1

2x+5y=17

x=17-5y/2

now lets substitute x in eq 2

5[17-5y/2]+3y=14

by solving it we obtain y=3

now lets sub y in eq 1

2x+5(3)=17

x=1
