Question

Solve x+y=14 and x-y=4 and hence find the value of 'm' for which y=mx+3​

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer

Given equations are

2x+3y=11−−−−(1)

2x−4y=−24−−−−(2)

Form (1)

2x+3y=11

⇒2x=11−3y

⇒x=

2

11−3y

−−−(3)

substituting x in(2)

2x−4y=−24

⇒2(

2

11−3y

)−4y=−24

⇒11−3y−4y=−24

⇒11−7y=−24

⇒7y=35

⇒y=35/7

⇒y=5.

putting y = 5 in (3)
