Question

Solve x and y for the above equation

Answer 1

Hey there!
=========================================
x/2-y/9=6

9x-2y/18=6

9x-2y =6*18

9x-2y = 108………[1]

=======================================

x/7+y/3=5

3x+7y/21=5

3x+7y=105 ……………[2]

=========================================

Multiply ✖ second equation by 3

9x+21y = 315 …………[3]

=======================================

Subtracting 1st equation from 3 rd equation

9x+21y = 315
9x-2y = 108
==========
23y = 207

y =207/23 = 9
=======================================
Substituting y =9 in the first equation

9x-2y = 108

9x -18=108

9x =108+18

9x =126

x=126/9

x=14

=======================================

(x,y) =(14,9)

hope helped!
