The solution of the system of equations that is given is (2,-1).

Given a system of equations are 5x+y=9 and 3x+2y=4.

A system of linear equations (or linear system) is a collection of one or more linear equations involving the same variables.  A solution to a linear system is an assignment of values to the variables such that all the equations are simultaneously satisfied.

The given equations are

5x+y=9    ......(1)

3x+2y=4  ......(2)

Here, the substitution method is used to solve the system of equations.

Find the value of y from equation (1) by subtracting 5x from both sides.

5x+y-5x=9-5x

y=9-5x

To find the value of x substitute the value of y in equation (2).

3x+2(9-5x)=4

Apply the distributive property a(b+c)=ab+ac as

3x+2×9-2×5x=4

3x+18-10x=4

Combine the like terms on the left side as

-7x+18=4

Subtract 18 from both sides and get

-7x+18-18=4-18

-7x=-14

Divide both sides by -7 and get

(-7x)÷(-7)=(-14)÷(-7)

x=2

Substitute the value of x in equation (1) and get

5(2)+y=9

10+y=9

Subtract 10 from both sides

10+y-10=9-10

y=-1

Hence, the solution of system of equations 5x+y=9 and 3x+2y=4 is (2,-1).
