Question

If (K+1, 2K+1) is a solution of the linear equation 2x - 3y =11,then find the value of k.


​

Answer 1

Answer:

-13/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x=k+1 and y= 2k+1

therefore,

2x-3y=11

2x-4y-11=0

2(k+1)-4(2k+1)-11=0

2k+2-8k-4-11=0

(2k-8k)+(2-4-11)=0

-6k-13=0

-6k=13

k=-13/6
