Question

Solve the given equation. You can use whichever method you want.

(i) x - 2y = 5 ; 2x - 4y = 6
(ii) 5x - 8y = -1 ; 3x - 24/5 y + 3/5 = 0
​

Answer 1

Hi. !

Step-by-step explanation:

X-2y =5. [eq 1]

2X-4y=6 [eq 2]

. [By multiplying equation 1 by 2 & equation 2 by 1. ]

2x -4y =10 [eq 3 ]

2X-4y =6 [eq 4]

By subtracting eq 3&4

Y = 4

put y =4 in eq 1

X-2*4=5

X-8=5

X=8-5=3

X=3
