Question 417996: Solve the system of equations using the elimination method:
5x + y = 14.94
3x + 2y = 22.95
Answer by mananth(16946) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
5x + y = 14.94
3x + 2y = 22.95
5x+1y=14.94.............1
3x+2y=22.95............2
multiply (1)by -2
Multiply (2) by 1
-10x-2y= -29.88
3x+2y=22.95
Add the two equations
-7x+=-6.93
/-7
x=0.99
plug value of x in (1)
5x+y=14.94
4.95+y=14.94
y=14.94 -4.95
y=9.99
y = 9.99
