Problem 619

Solve the system by the elimination method.

 

2x=4+y…………………(1)

-5/4x+y= -1/4………….(2)

 

Solution:-

 

From equation 1        2x-y=4…………(3)

Now add equation 2 and equation 3

-5/4x+y+2x-y= -1/4+4

-5/4x+2x=(-1+4*4)/4

3x/4x=15/4

3x=15

X=5

Put this value in equation 3

2(5)-y=4

Y=10-4

Y=6
