Solve by Elimination b) -4x+2y=-4 4x-5y=-8

Mathematics
1 answer:
ruslelena [56]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

x = 3

y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

-4x+2y=-4   -----(eq1)

4x-5y=-8 ------(eq 2)

by elimination,

(eq1) + (eq 2),

(-4x+2y) + (4x-5y) = -4 + (-8)

-4x+2y + 4x-5y = -4 -8

2y-5y = -12

-3y = -12   (divide both sides by -3)

y = -12 / (-3) = 12/3 = 4  (sub back into (eq 1) )

-4x+2y=-4   -----(eq1), when y = 4,

-4x+2(4)=-4  

-4x+8 = -4    (subtract 8 from both sides)

-4x= -4   - 8

-4x= -12 (divide both sides by -4)

x = -12 / (-4) = 3
