Solve each of the following pairs of simultaneous equations by using substitution X+5y=8
1 answer:
<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
