Question

Solve the system using elimination.

Answer 1

Answer:

y=50 and x=-173/2

Step-by-step explanation:

52-2y=-48

∴-2y=-100

y=50

and 2x+3y=-23

y=50→(1)

2x+3y=-23→(2)

Putting y=50 in equation (2), we get

⇒2x+3y=-23

⇒2x+3(50)=-23

⇒2x+150=-23

⇒2x=-23-150

⇒2x=-173

⇒x=-173/2

∴y=50 and x=-173/2
