There are 3 ways of solving a simultaneous problem, substitution method, elimination method and Gauss-Jordan method. I'm gonna use the substitution method since it's easier and i think it would suit your level more.

First let's try solving for y since it's easier to start with.

Firstly we have to find an equation for x:

$x-2y=2\\x-2y+2y=2+2y\\x=2+2y$

Great, now we can use the substitution method to find the value of y using the first equation:

$2x+3y=11\\2(2+2y)+3y=11\\4+4y+3y=11\\7y=7\\y=1$

Now we know that y=1 we can solve the first equation we made:

$x=2+2y\\x=2+2(1)\\x=4$

And the answer is $x=4 , y= 1\\(4,1)$

Double check:

$2x+3y=11\\2(4)+3(1)=11\\8+3=11\\11=11\\\\x-2y=2\\(4)-2(1)=2\\2=2$

And that's our final answer! (4,1)

What is the reciprocal of 4.5? And after I get the reciprocal how did they get 2 over 9 for the answer?

djverab [1.8K]

So 4.5 is equal to 4 and 1/2
u can convert that to 9/2
then to get the reciprocal you flip the denominator and numerator
this gives u 2/9
