Question

solve the equation x/3+y/2=4, 2x/3-y/4=3

Answer 1

ANSWER

2x+3y=14,2x−3y=2

Adding :

2x+3y=14

2x−3y=2

__________

4x=16

x=4

∴xy=4×2

=8

2×4+3y=14

8+3y=14

3y=6

y=2

Answer 2

Answer:

1) x/3 + y/2=4

x + y= 4x3x2  (∵ all constants have to be on one side, and the opposite of

                                                                                 division is multiplication)

x + y = 24

2) 2x/3 - y/4=3

   2x-y= 3×3×4  (∵ Constants have to be on one side)

  x - y= 36÷2

  x - y= 18

hope it helped :)
