Answer:

B. y = -5/2x +3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 2y = 3

We want to get this in the form

y = mx +b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

Subtract 5x from each side

5x -5x+ 2y =-5x+ 3

2y = -5x+3

Divide by 2

2y/2 = -5x/2 +3/2

y = -5/2 x +3/2

8x-5y=21 simultaneous linear equation<br>2x+9y=-5

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

$x=2$ and $y=-1$

Step-by-step explanation:

If two equations are given, we can solve one of the equation in terms of single variable and put it in the other equation which will further give the value of x and y.

For the given equations:

$8x-5y=21$ Equation:1

$2x+9y=-5$ Equation:2

Solving equation multiply equation 2 with 4 on both the sides

$8x+36y=-20$ Equation 3

Subtracting Equation:3 from Equation:1

$8x-5y-(8x+36y)=21-(-20)\\8x-5y-8x-36y=21+20\\-41y=41\\y=-1$

Putting value of 'y' in Equation:2 which will give the value of x

$2x+9y=-5\\2x+9(-1)=-5\\2x-9=-5\\2x=4\\x=2$
