Question

What is the answer to 2x+4y=16:4y=12

Answer 1

Answer:

Here,

$2x + 4y = 16....eqn \: i \\ 4y = 12....eqn \: ii$

substituting the value of 4y in eqn i fron eqn ii

so eqn i becomes

$2x + 12 = 16 \\ 2x = 4 \\ x = 2$

So

$y = 12 \div 4 = 3$

Thus,

$x = 2 \: and \: y = 3$

...hope this helps:)
