Answer:

x=5, y = -2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

4x+3y=18

x-3y=7

Add the two equations together

4x+3y=18

x-3y=7

------------------

5x = 25

Divide by 5

5x/5 = 25/5

x = 5

Now solve for y

x - 3y = 7

5 -3y = 7

Subtract 5 from each side

5-3y-5 = 7-5

-3y = 2

Divide by -3

-3y/-3 = 2/-3

y = -2/3

Answer:

x = 5, y = -2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

4x+3y=18 .......make x the subject

4x = 18 - 3y

x = (18 - 3y )/4 ......<u>equation 1</u>

x-3y=7 ......make x the subject, follow the same method

x = 7 + 3y ......<u>equation 2</u>

<em>then solve them ( equation1 and equation2 </em>) simultaneously:

7 + 3y = (18 - 3y )/4

( 7 + 3y ) * 4 = 18 - 3y

28 + 12y = 18 - 3y ........bring y in one side and numbers in another side

10 = - 15 y

y = - 2/3

if y = -2/3

then x = 7 + 3 ( -2/3 ) .....from equation 2

x = 7 - 2

x = 5
