Question

if x=1,y=1 is a solution of the equation 3x+ay=6, find the value of`a'

Answer 1

hi!

Given :
x = 1,
y = 1..

To find : 3x + ay = 6.

Put the value on x & y in this equation ;

=) 3(1) + a(1) = 6

=) 3 + a = 6

=) a = 6-3

=) a = 3

To check :

=) 3(1) + 3(1) = 6

=) 3 + 3 = 6

=) 6 = 6

=) lhs = rhs

Hope it helps uh!!

Answer 2

Answer:

=> The value of a = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that: -

$3x+ay=6$

If x = 1, y = 1

We have to determine the value of a,

Now, plug the value of x as 1 and y as 1:

As we have,

=> $3x+ay=6$

=> $3 ( 1 ) + a ( 1 ) = 6$

=> $3 + a = 6$

=> $a = 6 - 3$

Subtract the numbers we get,

=> a = 3

Hence, the value of a is 3.
