Question

If 2x -3y = 1 and 5x +2y = 50, then what is the value of (x-2y)?​

Answer 1

Answer:

x=8,y=5

Step-by-step explanation:

2x=1+3y ,x=1+3y/2, by putting the value of x in second equation we get 5(1+3y/2)+2y=50 by solving this you will get the value of y =5 and putting the value of y in first equation we get x=8 so x-2y=8-10=-2
