Solve linear equation 2x + y = 5 and 3x - 2y = 4
Solution:
The set of equations given are linear equations that can be solved simultaneously to find the values of variables x and y.
2x + y = 5------->(1)
3x - 2y = 4------->(2)
Multiply equation (1) by 2 and add to equation (2)
4x + 2y = 10
3x - 2y = 4
7x + 0 = 14
7x = 14
x = 2
Substituting x = 2 in (1) we get
2(2) + y = 5
y = 5 - 4 = 1
Therefore on solving the system of linear equations simultaneously the values of x and y obtained are 2 and 1 respectively.
Solve linear equation 2x + y = 5 and 3x - 2y = 4
Summary:
On solving the linear equations 2x + y = 5 and 3x - 2y = 4 we get x = 2 and y = 1.
