Question

7x+3y=8 3x-4y=14 solve by elimination method

Answer 1

Thats all. hope u understood.

Answer 2

Answer:

{x,y} = {2,-2}

Step-by-step explanation:

System of Linear Equations entered :

  [1]    7x + 3y = 8

  [2]    3x - 4y = 14

Graphic Representation of the Equations :

   3y + 7x = 8        -4y + 3x = 14  

Solve by Substitution :

// Solve equation [2] for the variable  x  

 

 [2]    3x = 4y + 14

 [2]    x = 4y/3 + 14/3

// Plug this in for variable  x  in equation [1]

  [1]    7•(4y/3+14/3) + 3y = 8

  [1]    37y/3 = -74/3

  [1]    37y = -74

// Solve equation [1] for the variable  y  

  [1]    37y = - 74  

  [1]    y = - 2  

// By now we know this much :

   x = 4y/3+14/3

   y = -2

// Use the  y  value to solve for  x  

  x = (4/3)(-2)+14/3 = 2

Solution :

{x,y} = {2,-2}
