Question

If 2x + 5y = -1 and 3x - 2y = 27, then what is the value of x?

Answer 1

is there a value for x or y

Answer 2

Answer:

x=7

Step-by-step explanation:

If 2x + 5y = -1 and 3x - 2y = 27

2x+5y=-1

x=(-1-5y/2)------------eq.1

3x - 2y = 27

x=(27+2y/3)---------eq.2

equating EQ.1 and EQ.2

(-1-5y/2)=27+2y/3

-1-5y=2*(27+2y)/3

-1-5y=54+4y/3

3(-1-5y)=54+4

-3-15y=54+4y

-3-54=4y+15y

-57=19y

y=(-57/19y)

y=-3

solving for x..

take say EQ.1 as x=EQ.1

x=(-1-5y/2)

y=(-3)

x=(-1-5*(-3)/2)

x=(-1+15/2)

x=14/2

x=7,y=(-3)
