Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that:
Let's first solve for y by choosing any equation.
- 4x + y = 14
- => y = 14 - 4x
Now, let's substitute the value of y into the second equation.
- 6x - 3y = 3
- => 6x - 3(14 - 4x) = 3
- => 6x - 42 + 12x = 3
- => 18x - 42 = 3
- => 18x = 42 + 3
- => 18x = 45
- => x = 45/18 = 5/2 = 2.5
Now, let's substitute the value of x into the equation of y.
- => 14 - 4x = y
- => 14 - 4(2.5) = y
- => 14 - 10 = y
- => y = 4
Hence, the value of x and y are 2.5 and 4 respectively.
