Question

x + 2y = 5 and 2x - 3y = -4​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

x+2y=5 equation (1)

2x-3y=-4 equation (2)

multiplying equation 1 by 2 we get

2x+4y=10 equation (3)

now subtracting equation 2 from equation 3 we get

y=2

now putting value of y in equation 1 we get

x+2×2=5

x=1

Answer 2

Answer:

x= 1

y= 2

Step-by-step explanation:

x+2y=5  --(1)

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

in eq. (1),

x=5-2y

Putting in eq. (2)

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

10-4y-3y= -4

-7y= -14

y= 2

Now, x= 5-2(2)= 5-4=1
