Answer:
x = -2/5
y = 12/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Substitution method;
-2x + 3y = 8 -----------(i)
x + y =2 -----------(ii)
x = 2 - y
substitute the value of x in equ (i)
(-2)* (2-y) + 3y = 8
-4 + 2y + 3y = 8
5y = 8 + 4
y = 12/5
substitute the value of y in equ (ii)
x + 12/5 = 2
x = 2 - 12/5
= 2*5/1*5 - 12/5
= 10 -12/5 = -2/5
Ans: x = -2/5
y = 12/5
elimination method:
-2x + 3y = 8 -----------(i)
x + y =2 -----------(ii)
(i) ====> -2x + 3y = 8
multiply equ (ii) by 2 ====> 2x + 2y = 4
add (i) and (ii) 5y = 12
y = 12/5
Substitute in equ (ii)
x + 12/5 = 2
x = 2 - 12/5
= 2*5/1*5 - 12/5
= 10 -12/5 = -2/5
Ans: x = -2/5
y = 12/5
ELIMINATION:
You can multiply the second equation by 2:
[tex]\begin{cases}-2x+3y=8\\2x+2y=4\end{cases}[/tex]
And then add the two equations:
[tex](-2x+3y)+(2x+2y)=8+4 \iff 5y=12 \iff y=\dfrac{12}{5}=2.4[/tex]
And we deduce
[tex]x=2-y = 2-2.4=-0.4[/tex]
SUBSTITUTION:
From the second equation, we derive
[tex]x=2-y[/tex]
Plug this expression for x in the first equation:
[tex]-2x+3y=8 \iff -2(2-y)+3y=8 \iff -4+2y+3y=8 \iff 5y=12[/tex]
And from here you proceed in the same way as above.
