Question

The solution of the following pair of linear equations 3x + 2y = 5, x - 5y = 13 are



x= 3 , y= 2

x = 2, y= 3

x = 3, y = -2

x = -3, y = -2

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 3, y = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiplying 1ˢᵗ eqⁿ by 5 & 2ⁿᵈ eqⁿ by 2 and adding we get,

17x = 51

∴ x = 3

Replacing value of x in 1ˢᵗ eqⁿ

9 + 2y = 5

∴ y = -2
