Make the coefficient of y the same in both equations:

To do this, multiply equation one by 2, and equation two by 5 (this will make the coefficient 10 in both).

14x + 10y = 38
-35x - 10y = -80


Eliminate the y variable by adding the equations from each other

   (14x + 10y = 38)
+ (-35x - 10y = -80)
=  -21x +  0y  = -42

We now have -21x = -42. The y variable has been eliminated.


Solve for x

-21x = -42

Divide both sides by -21 to get x on its own.

x = 2


Substitute x into the equation to find y.

7*2+5y=19

14+5y=19

Subtract 14 from both sides.

5y=19-14

5y=5

Divide by 5 on both sides to get y on its own.

y=5/5

y=1


The answer is (2,1)

What is the value of x in the equation 8x – 2y = 48, when y = 4?
Phoenix [80]
Hey there!

So, if y=(4), this would mean that we would do (2 \ * \ 4) and from this, we would get 8. 

We will then need to find what is (x).

(x) = 7

8*7 = \boxed{56}

So, the equation would really look like . . .

\left[\begin{array}{ccc} 8*(7)-2*4 = 48 \\ \\ x=\boxed{7}\end{array}\right]

Hope this helps.
