Answer:
[tex]3x - 4y = 17ndx - y = 3 \\ 3x - x - 4y + 44y = 17 - 3 \\ 3x - x = 17 - 3 \\ 2x = 17 - 3 \\ 2x = 14 \\ x = 7 \\ \\ 7 - 4y = 3 \\ - 4y = - 4 \\ y = 1[/tex]
Answer:
x = 7
y = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
3x - 4y = 17
x - 4y = 3
Solve x in the second equation.
x = 3 + 4y
Put x as 3 + 4y in the first equation and solve for y.
3(3 + 4y) - 4y = 17
9 + 12y - 4y = 17
9 + 8y = 17
8y = 17 - 9
8y = 8
y = 8/8
y = 1
Put y as 1 in the second equation and solve for x.
x = 3 + 4(1)
x = 3 + 4
x = 7
