Question

What is the solution to the system of equations? {y=5x−10y=−3x+14

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 3 and y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equations are :

y=5x−10 ..(1)

y=−3x+14 ...(2)

Subtract equation (2) from (1).

y-y = 5x−10-(−3x+14)

0 = 5x-10+3x-14

0= 8x-24

8x = 24

x = 3

Put the value of x in equation (1).

y=5(3)−10

= 15-10

y = 5

So, the values of x and y are 3 and 5 respectively.
