Answer:
Explanation:
Given the simultaneous equation
4x-5y+16 =0 ....... 1
2x+y-6 =0 ...... 2
Let us solve to get the variable x and y:
The equation becomes
4x-5y =-16 ........ * 1
2x+y =6 ...... *2
Using Elimination method
Multiply eqn 1 by 1 and eqn 2 by 2
4x-5y =-16
4x+2y =12
Subtract resulting equation
-5y-2y = -16-12
-7y = -28
solve for y
-7y/-7 = -28/-7
y = 4
Substitute y = 4 into equation 2 to get x
2x+y =6
2x + 4 = 6
2x = 6-4
2x = 2
x = 2/2
x = 1
hence x is 1, y is 4
