Using substitution <br> x+3y=3<br> 3y-2x=12
frez [133]

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given </u><u>:</u><u>-</u>

  • x + 3y = 3
  • 3y - 2x = 12

And we need to solve the equation using Substituting method . So on taking the first equation ,

\rm\implies x + 3y = 3 \\\\\rm\implies x = 3 - 3y

<u>Put </u><u>this</u><u> </u><u>value</u><u> </u><u>in </u><u>(</u><u>ii)</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u><u> </u>

\rm\implies 3y - 2x = 12 \\\\\rm\implies 3y - 2(3-3y)=12\\\\\rm\implies 3y -6-6y = 12 \\\\\rm\implies -3y = 18 \\\\\rm\implies y = -6

<u>Put </u><u>this</u><u> </u><u>Value</u><u> </u><u>in </u><u>(</u><u>I)</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u><u> </u>

\\\\\rm\implies x = 3-3*-6 \\\\\rm\implies x = 3+18 \\\\\rm\implies x = 21

<u>Hence</u><u> the</u><u> </u><u>Value</u><u> </u><u>of </u><u>x </u><u>is </u><u>2</u><u>1</u><u> </u><u>and </u><u>y </u><u>is </u><u>(</u><u>-</u><u>6</u><u>)</u><u> </u><u>.</u>
