Question

X+5= 3y, 4x+y = 2 value of x and y?

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 1/13 and y = 22/13

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 3y - 5

substitute x in the second equation

4(3y - 5) + y = 2

12y - 20 + y = 2

13y = 22

y = 22/13

substitute value of y in 1st equation

x = 3 (22/13) - 5

= 66/13 - 5

= (66-65)/ 13

= 1/13

verification

4x + y should give you 2.

4/13 + 22/13

= (4+22)/13

= 26/ 13 = 2

thus your answer is verified too
