Question

x-2/y-2=2/5, x+5/y+5=3/4
By elimination

Answer 1

Answer:

x=4; y=7

Step-by-step explanation:

=x-2/y-2=2/5 y+5/y+5=3/4

=5(x-2)=2(y-2) 4(x+5)=3(y+5)

=5x-10=2y-4 4x+20=3y+15

=3(5x-2y=6)...eq1 2(4x-3y=-5)....eq2

15x-6y=18

8x-6y=-10

(-) (+) (+)

by cutting -6y and +6y

7x=28

x=28/7

x=4

putting the value of x in eq1

5×4-2y=6

20-2y=6

-2y=6-20

-2y=-14

y=-14/-2

y=7
