Answer:
a = 2
b = 11
c = 11
d = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
On comparing to right side, we get,
22a + 6b = 110
Divide the entire equation by 2
11a + 3b = 55 ------------(I)
11a - 9b = -77 -------------(II)
Subtract equation (II) from (I)
11a + 3b = 55
11a - 9b = -77
<u> - + + </u> {Now subtract}
12b = 132
b = 132/12
Substitute the value of b in eqaution (I)
11a + 3*11 = 55
11a + 33 = 55
11a = 55 - 33
11a = 22
a = 22/11
22c + 6d = 230
Divide by 2
11c + 3d = 115 -----------------(III)
11c - 9d = -139 ------------------(IV)
Subtract (IV) from (III)
11c + 3d = 115
11c - 9d = 139
<u>- + - </u>
12d = -24
d = -24/12
Plugin d = - 2 in equation (III)
11c + 3*(-2) = 115
11c - 6 = 115
11c = 115 + 6
11c = 121
c = 121/11
