can any one please help me
A system of equations is given below. 2x + 7y = 1 -3x – 4y = 5 Create an equivalent system of equations by replacing the first equation by multiplying the first equation by an integer other than 1, and adding it to the second equation. Use any method to solve the equivalent system of equations (the new first equation with the original second equation). Prove that the solution for the equivalent system is the same as the solution for the original system of equations.
@Hero @kade_sonix @nikato @satellite73
try multiplying the first one by 3 and the second one by 2
ok then what
add in a column , the \(x\) terms will add up to zero and you will be left with an equation in \(y\) only
can you please show me how
\[2x + 7y = 1\\ -3x – 4y = 5 \] \[6x+21y=3\\ -6x-8y=10\]
add in a column you get \[13y=13\] so \(y\) should be obvious
its 1 right?
yes
okay so thats the answer for the first one right
