Question

X_y=2,3x+2y=16
substitusion method

Answer 1

Answer:

(4,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

x-y=2. -------->eqn 1

3x+2y =16 ------->eqn 2

Multiply eqn 1 with (2)

2x-2y=4

3x+2y=16

--------------------

5x+0y=20

---------------------

5x+0y=20

5x=20

x=4

Substitute x=4 in eqn (2)

3x+2y =16

3(4)+2y=16

12+2y=16

2y=16-12

2y=4

y=4/2

y=2

Therefore the value of x and y is (4,3)
