Question

The solution of the pair of linear equations 3x-2y=5 and 5x +2y=19 is _______ (x=-3,y=-2 ; x= -2, y= 3 ; x=3,y= 2; x = -3, y= 2)​

Answer 1

Answer:

c) x = 3, y = 2 is our solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

we have two linear equations:

given as:

3x-2y = 5

5x+2y = 19

on adding both equations

we get:

3x - 2y + 5x+2y = 5 + 19

8x = 24

x = 3

and, y = (19 - 5x)/2

y = (19 - 15)/2

y = 2
