Question

Solve the following pair of linear equations by
the elimination method.

x + y = 5

2x - 3y = 4​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

3x +3y =15

2x -3y =4

5x =19

x =19/5

y =5-19/5

y =6/5

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiplying the equation 1 by 2

2x+2y=10...........(1)

Now subtraction Equation first by 2

2x+2y=10

2x-3y =4

- + -

.................

5y=6

y=6/5 ........(3)

Now substitution the value in equation 1

X+6/5=5

x=19/5
