Answer:
x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
2 (4x + 3y = 26)
3 (3x - 2y = 11)
8x + 6y = 52
9x - 6y = 33 [the 6y and -6y cancel out]
17x = 85 [divide both sides by 17 to find x]
x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Hey, there!!
Given,
4x + 3y = 26........(i)
3x -2y = 11............(ii)
Multiplying equation (i) by 2 and equation (ii) by 3 we get,
8x - 6y = 52
9x + 6y = 33
17x = 85 { cancelling 6y and -6y}.
[tex]x = \frac{85}{17} [/tex]
Therefore, x= 5.
Now, putting the value of x is equation (i)
4x + 3y = 26
4×5 + 3y = 26
20 + 3y = 26
3y = 26 -20
[tex]y = \frac{6}{3} [/tex]
Therefore, y = 2.
Hope it helps.....
