If 3y+x 2 and x+2y 3 what can be said about the value of y
Answers
Concept
When you solve an equation, you calculate the value of the unknown variable while maintaining the equation's balance on both sides. A condition on a variable is an equation when it guarantees the equality of two expressions in the variable. The equation is considered to have a solution when the value of the variable is such that the equation holds.
Given
the equations are :
3y ₊ x = 2 .....eq(1)
x ₊ 2y = 3 .....eq(2)
Find
determine the value of y after solving the equations.
Solution
from the given data,
3y ₊ x = 2 .....eq(1)
x ₊ 2y = 3 .....eq(2)
solve both the equations.
3y ₊ x = 2
2y ₊ x = 3
⁻ ⁻ ⁻
we get, y = ₋1
substitute y avlue in eq(1) to get the value of x.
3y ₊ x = 2
3(₋1) ₊ x = 2
₋3 ₊ x = 2
x = 5
hence we get the value of x and y as 5 and ₋1 respectively.
