solve the system of equation by using the elimination method

solve the system of equation by using the elimination method. 3x-2y=5, -9x+6y=12

Solution

Dear Student

Thank you for using Chegg !!

Given equations

3x - 2y = 5                                     Equation 1

-9x + 6y = 12                                Equation 2

Slving x in equation 1 we get

3x = 2y + 5

x = (2y + 5)/3

Substituting value of x in equation 2

-9(2y + 5) /3 + 6y = 12

-3(2y + 5) + 6y = 12

-15 = 12

Clearly the above system of equation is inconsisten with no solution

Thank you !!
