Question

7x+2y=19 7x+8y=13 Please solve it by Simultaneous method

Answer 1

Answer:

y=-1

x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

7x+2y=19-----(1)

7x+8y=13------(2)

(1)-(2)

(7x+2y)-(7x+8y)=19-13

7x+2y-7x-8y=6

+2y-8y=6

-6y=6

y=-1

by substitute in (1)

7x+2*(-1)=19

7x-2=19

7x=19+2

7x=21

x=21/3

x=3
