Question

Solve for X and Y 3x+5y=23 -5x+3y=41 *​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

3x+5y=23

3x=23-5y

x=23-5y/3. ........ eq (*1)

-5x+3y=41

3y-41/5 =x. ...........eq *(2)

equating both

23-5y/3 = 3y-41/5

By cross multiply...

115-25y = 9y-123

238=34y

y=7

x= -8/3

put y equals 7 in eq 1

x= 23-5×7/3

x=
