Question

If 2x+3y=23 and 4x-y=19 find the value of 5y-2x and y/x-2

Answer 1

Answer:

Given System of Equations are:

2x+y=23 ...(1)

4x−y=19 ...(2)

Now adding both the equation will have:

6x=42

x=7

Now substituting x=7 in in equation (1)

⇒2(7)+y=23

⇒14+y=23

⇒y=9

Now substituting x=7 and y=9 in 5y−2x

⇒5(9)−2(7)

⇒45−14

⇒31

Now Substituting Now substituting x=7 and y=9 in
