solve 3x+5y=15
and 5x+2y=10
Answers
Answer:
[1] 3x + 5y = 15
[2] 5x + 2y = 10Solve equation [2] for the variable y
[2] 2y = -5x + 10
[2] y = -5x/2 + 5
Plug this in for variable y in equation [1]
[1] 3x + 5•(-5x/2+5) = 15
[1] -19x/2 = -10
[1] -19x = -20
Solve equation [1] for the variable x
[1] 19x = 20
[1] x = 20/19
By now we know this much :
x = 20/19
y = -5x/2+5
Use the x value to solve for y
Solve equation [2] for the variable y
[2] 2y = -5x + 10
[2] y = -5x/2 + 5
Plug this in for variable y in equation [1]
[1] 3x + 5•(-5x/2+5) = 15
[1] -19x/2 = -10
[1] -19x = -20
Solve equation [1] for the variable x
[1] 19x = 20
[1] x = 20/19
By now we know this much :
x = 20/19
y = -5x/2+5
Use the x value to solve for y
y = -(5/2)(20/19)+5 = 45/19
Solution :
{x,y} = {20/19,45/19}
y = -(5/2)(20/19)+5 = 45/19
Solution :
{x,y} = {20/19,45/19}
Answer:
(x,y) => 20/19, 45/19
Step-by-step explanation:
3x+5y=15. eqn 1
5x+2y=10. eqn 2
eqn 1 multiple 2
2*5=>25x+10y=50
1*2=> 6x+10y=30
=>19x. =20
x =20/19
substitute x=20/19in eqn 2
5x+2y=10
5(20/19)+2y =10
y= 45/19.
I hope Iam correct
