Type the correct answer in each box. If necessary, use / for the fraction bar(s). Find the solution for this system of equations. 12x 15y = 34 -6x 5y = 3 x = y =.

Respuesta :

The value of x and y are 5/6 and 8/5 respectively

Given the systems of equations

  • 12x + 15y = 34 ...................... 1 *1
  • -6x + 5y = 3 ..................... 2 * 3

Solving the equations using the elimination method

12x + 15y = 34

-18x + 15y = 9

Subtract both expressions:

12x-(18x) = 34 - 9

12x+18x = 25

30x = 25

x = 5/6

Substitute x = 5/6 into equation 1 to have:

12x + 15y = 34

12(5/6) + 15y = 34

10 + 15y = 34

15y = 24

y = 8/5

Hence the value of x and y are 5/6 and 8/5 respectively
