3x + 4y = 7

a) x = ?
b) y = ?​

I will mark you ask brainliest if you answer me correctly.

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 10x -4y = 32 be equation-1

Then, 3x + 4y = 7 be equation-2

By elimination method,

10x - 4y = 32

3x + 4y = 7

–––––––-––––

13x = 39

So, x = 3

By putting the value of x in equation- 2

=> 3x3 + 4y =7

=> 9 + 4y = 7

=> 4y = 7 - 9

=> 4y = -2

=> y = -2/4

=> y = -1/3
