Question

Solve the given system of equations 2x+8y=5 24x-4y=-15

Answer 1

The value of x and y is y= 3/4 and x= -1/2

What is equation?

An equation is a mathematical expression that contains an equals symbol. Equations often contain algebra.

Given equations:

2x+8y=5........(1)

24x-4y=-15...........(2)

Multiply equation (1) by 12, we get

24x + 96y = 60.....(3)

From (2) and (3), we get

-4y-96y= -15-60

-100 y= -75

y= -75/-100

y= 3/4

and 2x+8y=5

2x + 8 (3/4) =5

2x + 6 = 5

2x= -1

x= -1/2
