The solution to given system of equations are (x, y) = (4, 2)
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
<em><u>Given system of equations are:</u></em>
2x + 3y = 14 ---------- eqn 1
3x - 4y = 4 --------- eqn 2
We have to solve the given system of equations
We can solve the above system of equations by elimination method
<em><u>Multiply eqn 1 by 3</u></em>
3(2x + 3y = 14)
6x + 9y = 42 --------- eqn 3
<em><u>Multiply eqn 2 by 2</u></em>
2(3x - 4y = 4)
6x - 8y = 8 ----------- eqn 4
<em><u>Subtract eqn 4 from eqn 3</u></em>
6x + 9y = 42
6x - 8y = 8
( - ) --------------
9y + 8y = 42 - 8
17y = 34
<h3>y = 2</h3>
<em><u>Substitute y = 2 in eqn 1</u></em>
2x + 3(2) = 14
2x + 6 = 14
2x = 14 - 6
2x = 8
<h3>x = 4</h3>
Thus the solution to given system of equations are (x, y) = (4, 2)
The discriminant is b²-4ac
when the discriminant is 0, there is only one solution.

Since this is a parallelogram, both bases are equal. You can set them equal to each other to find x:
6+3x=x+14
Subtract x from both sides.
6+2x=14
Subtract 6 from both sides.
2x=8
Divide by 2.
x=4
Hope this helps! :)
