Question

1/2 X - 1/3 Y = 5 X= 2/3 Y + 10

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 10

y = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2 x - 1/3 y = 5   ......1

x = 2/3 y + 10   ......2

substituting equation 2 in 1

1/2( 2/3y + 10) - 1/3y = 5

0.5(0.6667y + 10) - 0.3333y =5

0.33335y + 5 - 0.3333y = 5

0.33335y - 0.3333y = 5 - 5

0.00005y = 0

y = 0

substitute y = 0 in equation 2

x = 2/3(0) + 10

x = 0 + 10

x = 10
