1 Answer

3 votes

Explanation:

8x + 3y = 7 --------(1)

2x + y = 2 ----------(2)

y = 2 – 2x ---------(3)

just substitute for y in equation (1)

8x + 3(2–2x) = 7

8x + 6 – 6x = 7

8x – 6x + 6 = 7

2x = 7 – 6

2x = 1

x = ½

since x = ½ just substitute for x in equation(3)

y = 2 – 2x

y = 2 – 2(½)

y = 2 – 1

y = 1

so x = ½,y = 1

i hope this helped
