Solve the simultaneous equation 2x + 3y = 7 3x + 2y = 8​

Mathematics
1 answer:
Verdich [7]1 year ago
6 0

Answer:

(2, 1 )

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 3y = 7 → (1)

3x + 2y = 8 → (2)

multiplying (1) by 3 and (2) by - 2 and adding will eliminate x

6x + 9y = 21 → (3)

- 6x - 4y = - 16 → (4)

add (3) and (4) term by term to eliminate x

0 + 5y = 5

5y = 5 ( divide both sides by 5 )

y = 1

substitute y = 1 into either of the 2 equations and solve for x

substituting into (1)

2x + 3(1) = 7

2x + 3 = 7 ( subtract 3 from both sides )

2x = 4 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 2

solution is (2, 1 )
