solve by using substitution method x-2y=2 ;3x+4y=3
Answers
x-2y= 2-----➊
3x+4y= 3----➋
From equation 1
we get ,
x= 2+2y ----❸
Now, put Equation 3 into Equation 2
=> 3x+4y=3
=> 3( 2+2y) +4y= 3
=> 6+6y+4y= 3
=> 10y+6= 3
=> 10y= 3-6= -3
=> y= -3/10
Put y's value into equation 1
=>x-2y=2
=> x-2*-3/10=2
=> x-+6/10=2
=> x+3/5=2
=>x = 2-3/5= 10-3/5
=> x= 7/5
Check:
=> x-2y= 2
Taking LHS
=> 7/5-2*-3/10
=> 7/5+6/10
=> 7/5+3/5
=> 10/5
=2
Hence,LHS = RHS

Substitution method is a way of solving the Equation in which we convert the whole Equation into one variable form and put into another equation to find out the other variable's value.
Solution: x - 2y = 2
⇒ x = 2 + 2y ---(i)
Substitute the value of x in the 2nd equation.
⇒ 3x + 4y = 3
⇒ 3(2 + 2y) + 4y = 3
⇒ 6 + 6y + 4y = 3
⇒ 6 + 10y = 3
⇒ 10y = 3 - 6
⇒ 10y = -3
⇒ y = -3/10
Substitute the value of y in (i).
⇒ x = 2 + 2y
⇒ x = 2 + 2 × (-3/10)
⇒ x = 2 - 3/5
⇒ x = (10 -3)/5
⇒ x = 7/5
Therefore, x = 7/5, y = -3/10
