Given:-
- 8x + 5y = 9
- 3x +2y = 4
To find:-
- Solve the linear equations by substitution and cross multiplication methods..?
Solutions:-
- 8x + 5y = 9 ..........(i).
- 3x +2y = 4 ...........(ii).
From equation (ii).
=> 3x + 2y = 4
- x = (4 - 2y)/3 .......(iii).
Substitution the value of in equation (ii), we get.
8x + 5y = 9
8[(4 - 2y)/3] + 5y = 9
32 - 16y + 15y = 27
-y = 27 - 32
--y = -5
y = 5
Putting the value of y in Eq (ii), we get.
=> 3x + 2y = 4
=> 3x + 2(5) = 4
=> 3x + 10 = 4
=> 3x = 4 - 10
=> 3x = -6
=> x = -6/3
=> x = -2
Hence, x = -2 and y = 5.
Again, by cross - multiplication methods.
8x + 5y - 9 = 0 ..........(i).
3x +2y - 4 = 0 ...........(ii).
x = -2 and y = 5
Hence, x = -2 and y = 5.
