Question

Use the linear combination method to solve the system of equations. â€"2. 1x 4y = 5. 3 2. 1x â€" 5. 5y = â€"0. 2 What is the solution to the system? ( , ).

Answer 1

The solution to the systems of equations is (7, 3)

Given the systems of equations expressed as:

-x + 4y = 5 ....................1

x - 5y = -2 ...................... 2

Add both equations to have:

-x+x + 4y - 5y = 5 - 2

4y-5y = -3

-y = -3

y = 3

Substitute y = 3 into equation 1:

-x + 4(3) = 5

-x + 12 = 5

-x = 5 - 12

-x = -7

x = 7

Hence the solution to the systems of equations is (7, 3)
