Question

solve this by elimination method

Answer 1

3x + 2y = 11  ---- (1)

2x + 3y = 4   ---- (2)

On solving (1) * 2 & (2) * 3, we get

6x + 4y = 22

6x + 9y = 12
--------------------

        -5y = 10

           y = -2.


Substitute y = -2 in (1), we get

3x + 2y = 11

3x + 2(-2) = 11

3x - 4 = 11

3x = 15

x = 5.


Hope this helps!
