Question

4x+3y=10
2x+3y= 8

Answer 1

Use subtraction to eliminate a variable :

The system of equations are .

Since the coefficient of the y - term in two equations is same. So, eliminate these terms by subtracting the equations.

Write the equations in column form and subtract to eliminate variable y.

.

The resultant equation is and solve for x.

Divide each side by 2.

Cancel common terms.

Substitute 1 for x in either equation and solve for y.

Equation 2 :

Subtract 2 from each side.

Divide each side by 3.

Cancel common terms.
