Question

X1 + X2 =-83X1 +2X2 = 18​

Answer 1

Answer:

X1 = 34

X2 = -42

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the simultaneous equations

X1 + X2 =-8 .... 1 * 3

3X1 +2X2 = 18​ .... 2 * 1

______________________

3X1 + 3X2 = -24

3X1 +2X2 = 18​

Subtract

3X2 - 2X2 =-24 - 18

X2 = -42

Substitute X2 = -42 into 1

X1 + X2 = -8

X1 - 42 = -8

X1 = -8+42

X1 = 34

Hence the solution to the system of equation is (34, -42)
