Answer:
(1,2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given equations:
4x + 7y = 18
2x + y = 4
Here, a₁ = 4, b₁ = 7, c₁ = 18 and a₂ = 2, b₂ = 1, c₂ = 4
∴ a₁/a₂ = 4/2 = 2
and b₁/b₂ = 7/1 = 7
also, c₁/c₂ = 18/4 = 9/2
We can observe that a₁/a₂ ≠ b₁/b₂
∴ System of Equation has a unique solution.
Let 4x + 7y = 18 be eqn-1
and 2x + y = 4 be eqn2
Multiply eqn2 by 2
∴ (2x + y = 4) × 2
= 4x + 2y = 8 {eqn 3}
Subtract eqn3 from eqn1
∴ 4x - 4x + 7y - 2y = 18 - 8
= 5y = 10
= y = 10/5
= y = 2
Put y = 2 in eqn 2
= 2x + 2 = 4
= 2x = 4 - 2
= x = 2/2
= x =1
∴ Solution of the system of equation = (1,2)
