Answer:
a = 4 , b = -2
Explanation:
3a + b = 10
2a + 4b = 0
(By using elimination method, eliminate one variable) - to get only one equation
(3a + b = 10 ) 4
2a + 4b = 0
12a + 4b = 40
(minus)
2a + 4b = 0
10a = 40
a = 40/10
a = 4
(substitute a into an equation to get b)
2a + 4b = 0
2(4) + 4b = 0
4b = 0 - 8
b = -8/4
b = -2
