Answer: The solution is (x, y) = (3.5, 1).
The correct option is (A)
Step-by-step explanation: We are given to solve the following system of equations by the method of elimination :
Also, to select the resulting equation while eliminating x.
Adding equations (i) and (ii), we get
Putting y = 1 in equation (i), we get
Thus, the required solution is (x, y) = (3.5, 1) and the resulting equation equation while eliminating x is
Option (A) is CORRECT.
