Slove the following linear system system: 3x+2y=9 and 4x+5y=5
Solution
3x+2y=9 -----(1)
and 4x+5y=5 -----(2)
Solve by elemination :
multiply equation 1 by 4 and equation 2 by 3:
12x +8y = 36
12x +15y = 15
------------------ ( subtract)
-7y = 21
y = -3
Plug y=-3 to find x : 3x -6 =9 ----> 3x = 15
x=5
Solution : ( x, y) = ( 5 ,-3)
