Question

solve using any algebraic method
x+3/4+y-1/3=1 and 2x-y=12 is the equation, please explain thanks

Answer 1

\[x+3/4+y-1/3=1\]
\[x+y+5/12=1\]
\[x=7/12-y\]plug this in to the other eqn.
\[2x-y=12\]
\[2(7/12-y)-y=12\]
\[7/6-2y-y=12\]
\[7/6-3y=12\]
\[-3y=65/6\]
\[y=-65/18\]
plug this y=-65/18 in to the x= equation
\[x=7/12-(-65/18)\]
\[x=151/36\]
x=151/36 or 4.19444
y= -65/18 or -3.6111

Answer 2

uhmm, how did you get x+y+5/12=1

Answer 3

3/4-1/3 = 5/12
