Question

Solve the system of equations.

2x - 4y = 3

-3x + 5y = 1

Answer 1

Multiply 1st equation by 3 and 2nd by 2 nd solve simultaneously

Answer 2

would i multiply 2x by three , 4y by 3 and 3 by 3? or how would i multiply it

Answer 3

every term

Answer 4

so then it'd be 6y - 12y = 6?

Answer 5

2nd one too

Answer 6

multiply the second one by 2?

Answer 7

or 3 also

Answer 8

Sorry for late replies,kinda busy..let me do it for u now

Answer 9

See basically,u have to find a common term in both so we can eliminate one term..so that we have a single equation variable to solve :)

Answer 10

If you multiply \[2x - 4y = 3 \] by 3 and \[-3x + 5y = 1\] by 2 u willget 6x in both so when u solve both of them simultaneously..

solve for y,substitute in any eq. and find x.
