Question

if the ordered pairs (x-3,3y+1) and (y+1,x+3) are equal then find x and y

Answer 1

Answer:

Given that ;

Ordered Pairs :

( x - 3 ; 3y + 1 )

( y + 1 ; x + 3 )

• Ordered Pairs are Equal

So ;

x - 3 = x + 3

3y + 1 = y + 1

Solving :

x - 3 = x + 3

x = x + 3 + 3

x = x + 6

x = 6

3y + 1 = y + 1

3y - y = 1 - 1

2y = 0

y = 0
