Solve for 'x' and 'y' ::

217x+131y=913
131x+217y=827

Please answer ASAP.​

Answer 1

Answer:

on adding both equation we get

348x + 348y =1740

Divide the whole equation by 348, we get

x+y =5

Multiply this equation by 217 we get

217x+217y=1085

Now subtract this equation from 217x+131y=913 we get

86y=172

so y=2 and x =3
