Question

What is the result of adding these two equations?

Answer 1

Answer:

When adding these two equations we get the value of x is $\frac{14}{3}$ and y is  $\frac{52}{3}$

Therefore $x=\frac{14}{3}$ and  and  $y=\frac{52}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given two equations are $5x-y=6\hfill (1)$$-2x+y=8\hfill (2)$To find the addition of these two given equations :

Adding the equations (1) and (2) we get

5x-y=6

-2x+y=8

_______

3x=14

$x=\frac{14}{3}$

Substitute the value $x=\frac{14}{3}$ in equation (1) we get

$5(\frac{14}{3})-y=6$

$-y=6-\frac{70}{3}$

$-y=\frac{18-70}{3}$

$-y=-\frac{52}{3}$

Therefore   $y=\frac{52}{3}$

When adding these two equations we get the value of x is $\frac{14}{3}$

Therefore $x=\frac{14}{3}$ and   $y=\frac{52}{3}$
