Mathematics

<span>x+5y=8  ----------------- (1)

</span>y=3x      ----------------- (2)

Substitute (2) into (1):

x + 5(3x) = 8

Distribute 5:
x + 15x = 8

Combine like terms:
16x = 8

Divide both sides by 16:
x = 0.5 

Substitute x = 0.5 into (2):

y = 3(0.5) 

Distribute 3
y = 1.5

Answer: x = 0.5, y = 1.5

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) 2x -y = 1 -------1

3x - y = -6 ------2

Subtract eqn 2 from eqn 1

-x = 1--6 = 7

x = -7

Put x= -7 in eqn 1

2*-7-y = 1

-14-y = 1

- y = 15

y = -15

2) 4x +2y = 10------1

y = 4x + 2--------2

Put eqn 2 in eqn 1

4x + 2 ( 4x+ 2) = 10

4x + 8x + 4 = 10

12x = 6

x = 6/12 = 1/2

Put x = 1/2 in eqn 2

y = 4* 1/2 + 2= 2 + 2

= 4

3) 6x - y = 2------1

y = 3x + 4---------2

Put eqn 2 in eqn 1

6x - (3x +4) = 2

6x - 3x - 4 = 2

3x = 6

x = 2

y = 3*2 + 4 = 6 + 4

= 10
