Answer 2

Answer:

The value of x=2 and y=1

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equations are

2x+3y = 7.......(1)

3x+2y= 8........(2)

multiply the equation (1) by 3 and (2) by 2

we get

6x+9y=21........(3)

6x+4y=16........(4)

now solving the new sets of equations (3) and (4)

we get,

5y=5

y=1

and

now put the value of y in equation (1) we get the value of x,

2x+3y=7

now y=1

we get

2x=7-3

2x=4

x=2

Hence the value of x=2 and y=1.
