X = 3
y = 1

You can get this by adding straight through and the y terms will cancel. Then divide the x terms to get the answer. You can then plug that x into either equation to solve for y.

Choose any one of these. Hopefully this helps :D

They're both solved using elimination method. [The labels 'Method 1' & 'Method 2' do not change the way they're solved here].

X/2-1/5=x/3+1/4<br>solve this equation

Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

$x=\frac{27}{10}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{x}{2}-\frac{1}{5}=\frac{x}{3}+\frac{1}{4}$

$\frac{x}{2}-\frac{1}{5}-\frac{x}{3}=\frac{x}{3}+\frac{1}{4}-\frac{x}{3}$

$-\frac{1}{5}+\frac{x}{6}=\frac{1}{4}$

$-\frac{1}{5}+\frac{x}{6}+\frac{1}{5}=\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{5}$

$\frac{x}{6}=\frac{9}{20}$

$\frac{6x}{6}=\frac{9\times \:6}{20}$

$x=\frac{27}{10}$
