Question

Solve the simultaneous equation 5x+3y=23 2x+4y=12

Answer 1

() = Fraction

Answer:

1. x= −(3 /5 y)+ (23 /5)

2. x=−2y+6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve for x.

5x+3y=23

Step 1: Add -3y to both sides.

5x+3y+−3y=23+−3y

5x=−3y+23

Step 2: Divide both sides by 5.

5x /5 = −((3y+23) /5)

x= −(3 /5 y)+ (23 /5)

------------------------------------------------

Let's solve for x.

2x+4y=12

Step 1: Add -4y to both sides.

2x+4y+−4y=12+−4y

2x=−4y+12

Step 2: Divide both sides by 2.

(2x /2 )= −((4y+12) /2)

x=−2y+6
