Solve x + 4y=14 7x - 3y =5 |
|
Answer» x+4y=14 ...........(i) 7x-3y=5 .............(ii) From equation (i) x = 14 - 4y Substitute the value of x in equation (ii) ⇒ 7 (14 - 4y) - 3y = 5 ⇒ 98 - 28y - 3y = 5 ⇒ 98 - 31y = 5 ⇒ 93 = 31y ⇒ y = 93/31 ⇒ y = 3 Now substitute value of y in equation (ii) ⇒ 7x - 3 (3) = 5 ⇒ 7x - 3 (3) = 5 ⇒ 7x = 14 ⇒ x = 14/7 = 2 So, solution is x = 2 and y = 3. |
