Step-by-step explanation:
This is kinda confusing :/
Answer: x = 1.28 or -1.28
Answer: x = -1 and y = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
7x + 3y = 8 ........................... equation 1
4x - y = - 9 ............................ equation 2
Solving the simultaneous linear equation by substitution method , make y the subject of the formula from equation 2 , we have
y = 4x + 9 ............................. equation 3
substitute y = 4x + 9 into equation 1 , we have;
7x + 3 ( 4x + 9 ) = 8
7x + 12x + 27 = 8
19x + 27 = 8
subtract 27 from both sides
19x = -19
divide through by 19
x = -1
substitute x = -1 into equation 3 , we have
y = 4 ( -1) + 9
y = -4 + 9
y = 5
Therefore :
x = -1 and y = 5
