Answer:
2x +3y=1⇒equation 1
3x=2y+8
3x-2y=8⇒equation 2
by elimination method,
2x+3y=1 ×2
3x-2y=8 ×3
4x+6y=2
9x-6y=24
cut 6y and -6y
4x+6y=2
9x-6y=24
---------------
13x+0=26
13x=26
x=26/13
x=2
substitute x=2 in equation 1
2(2)+3y=1
4+3y=1
3y=1-4
3y=-3
y=-3/3
y=-1
therefore, x=2 and y=-1
hope it helps u!
Answer:
His book was opened at Page no.296 and Page no.297
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the page number of one page be x
Page number of page facing page no. x = x+1
We are given that the product of the facing pages was 87,912.
So, x(x+1)=87912




(x+297)(x-296)=0
x=296,-297
Since Page no. cannot be negative
So, x=296
x+1=296+1=297
So, his book was opened at Page no.296 and Page no.297
