Question

Solve the system of linear equation. 2x-5= 14 3x+2y = 40

Answer 1

X=9.5, Y=5.75. Step by Step Explanation is-
First take 2x-5=14
= 2x=14+5 ; 2x=19 ; x=19/2=9.5
Now take 3x+2y=40; We substitute the value of x with 9.5. So the equation is-
=3*9.5+2y=40 ; 2y+28.5=40 ; 2y=40-28.5=11.5 ; y=11.5/2=5.75.
Thank you and hope it helped

Answer 2

Answer:

x=9.5, y=5.75

Step-by-step explanation:

2x-5=14, 3x+2y=40

focus on 2x-5=14 first:

2x-5=14 (add 5 to both sides) 2x=19(divide both sides by 2) x=9.5

Now subtitute x into the second equation and find y:

3(9.5)+2y=40(simplify) 28.5+2y=40(subtract 28.5 on both sides) 2y=11.5(divide both sides by 2) y=5.75
