Answer:

x = 4, y = 1 is the solution of the given system of equation.

Explanation:

Here, the given set of equations is:

3 x + 2 y = 14

x + y = 5 ⇒ y = 5- x

Solve the given system by SUBSTITUTION METHOD:

Substitute the value of y = 5- x in 3 x + 2 y = 14 , we get

3 x + 2 y = 14 ⇒ 3x + 2 (5- x) = 14

or 3 x - 2x + 10 = 14

⇒ x = 10+ 14 = 14 - 10

or, x = 4

Now, y = 5 - x = 5- 4 = 1

Hence, x = 4, y = 1 is the solution of the given system of equation.
