If x+2y=5 and 2x+y=7 then find the value of x+y
Answers
Answer:
Given Equation
➝x + 2y = 5 (i)
➝2x + y = 7 (ii)
To Find
➝x + y
Now Take
➝x + 2y = 5 (i)
➝2x + y = 7 (ii)
Apply Substitution Method
We can write (i)eq as
➝x + 2y = 5 (i)
➝x = 5 - 2y (iii)
Put the value of x on (ii)eq
➝2x + y = 7
➝2(5 - 2y) + y = 7
➝10 - 4y + y = 7
➝-3y = 7 - 10
➝-3y = -3
➝y = 3/3
➝y = 1
Now Put the value of y on (iii) eq
➝x = 5 - 2y
➝x = 5 - 2(1)
➝x = 5 - 2
➝x = 3
We get
➝x = 3 and y = 1
We have to find x + y
➝x + y
➝3 + 1
