Given the system of equations, what is the solution?5x - 4y = 7x = 5 - 3/2y
1 answer:
9514 1404 393
Answer:
(x, y) = (61/23, 36/23)
Step-by-step explanation:
We assume you intend the equations to be ...
- 5x -4y = 7
- x = 5 -3/2y
Then in general form, they are ...
5x -4y -7 = 0
2x +3y -10 = 0
The solution using the "cross multiplication method" is ...
1/(15 +8) = x/(40+21) = y/(-14 +50)
(x, y) = (61/23, 36/23)

<em>Comment on "cross multiplication method"</em>
When the coefficients from the general form equations are written as a 2×4 array with the first and last columns the same ...
the solution is 1/d1 = x/d2 = y/d3, where d1, d2, d3 are the determinants of successive pairs of columns.
- d1 = (5)(3) -(2)(-4)
- d2 = (-4)(-10) -(3)(-7)
- d3 = (-7)(2) -(-10)(5)
