Answer:

x = 7, y = 2

Explanation:

equations given:

x + 7y = 21

x + 4y = 15

make "x" the subject:

x + 7y = 21

x = 21 - 7y .........equation 1

x + 4y = 15

x = 15 - 4y .......equation 2

Solving both the equations simultaneously:

15 - 4y = 21 - 7y

-4y + 7y = 21 - 15

3y = 6

y = 6 ÷ 3

y = 2

If y is 2

Then x = 21 -7y;

x = 21 - 7(2)

x = 21 - 14

x = 7

Xignerso

x + 7y= 21

7 goes to RHS = X+ y = 21/7-3

x + 4y = 15

4 goes to RHS= x+y = 15/4 = 3.75
