Simultaneous equations 2x+3y=13 4x-y=-2

Mathematics
1 answer:
Rufina [12.5K]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

(0.5, 4 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

2x + 3y = 13 → (1)

4x - y = - 2 → (2)

Multiplying (2) by 3 and adding to (1) will eliminate the term in y

12x - 3y = - 6 → (3)

Add (1) and (3) term by term to eliminate y

14x = 7 ( divide both sides by 14 )

x = 0.5

Substitute x = 0.5 into either of the 2 equations and evaluate for y

Substituting into (1)

2(0.5) + 3y = 13

1 + 3y = 13 ( subtract 1 from both sides )

3y = 12 ( divide both sides by 3 )

y = 4

Solution is (0.5, 4 )

The ratio of money in Terry's bank account to Faye's bank account was 3:7. Terry then put £220 in his account and Faye withdrew
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

Terry initially had £390

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of the original amount is 3:7

Let the original amount Terry has be t and the original amount Faye has be f

3/7 = t/f

or simply 3f = 7t ••••••(i)

Terry putting 220 means he now has

t + 220

Faye withdrew 300

He now has f-300

These values are equal

t + 220 = f-300

f = t+220+300

f = t + 520 ••••••(ii)

Put ii into i

3(t + 520) = 7t

3t + 1560 = 7t

7t-3t = 1560

4t = 1560

t = 1560/4

t = 390
