Explanation

Answer 2

${\huge{\bold{\boxed{\tt{\color{magenta}{answer}}}}}}$

2x + 3y = 11…………………………..(i)

2x + 3y = 11…………………………..(i)2x – 4y = -24………………………… (ii)

From equation (ii), we get;

x = (11 – 3y)/2 ……….…………………………..(iii)

Putting the value of x in equation (ii), we get

2[(11 – 3y)/2] – 4y = −24

11 – 3y – 4y = -24

-7y = -35

y = 5……………………………………..(iv)

Putting the value of y in equation (iii), we get;

x = (11 – 15)/2 = -4/2 = −2

Hence, x = -2, y = 5

Also,

y = mx + 3

5 = -2m +3

-2m = 2

m = -1

Therefore, the value of m is -1
