Question

Solve the simultaneous equations 5x+2y=25 5x-y=10

Answer 1

5x + 2y = 25;

5x + 2y = 25;5x - y = 10;

5x + 2y = 25;

5x = 10 + y;

(10 + y) + 2y = 25;

5x = 10 + y;

10 + 3y = 25;

5x = 10 + y;

3y = 15;

5x = 10 + y;

y = 5;

5x = 10 + y;

y = 5;

5x = 10 + 5;

y = 5;

5x = 15;

y = 5;

x = 3.

Answer: (3; 5).
