Question

Solve the simultaneous equations
x+3y=11. X+2y=9

Answer 1

y=2, x=5

Explanation:

we can subtract the system of equations to eliminate x and to find the value of 1 y

x+3y=11

minus

x+2y+9

=y=2, now we can replace the value y (2) into either equation to find the value of x

x+3(2)=11

x+6=11

x=5
