if x +2y=32 and y / 2x=0.75 what are the values for x and y?
\n" ); document.write( "


\n" );
document.write( "x + 2y = 32 -------- eq (i)
\n" );
document.write( "______1.5x = y____1.5x - y = 0 ------- eq (ii)          
\n" );
document.write( "3x - 2y = 0 ------ Multiplying eq (ii) by 2 ------- eq (iii)
\n" );
document.write( "4x = 32 ------ Adding eqs (iii) & (i)
\n" );
document.write( "x = , or 8
\n" );
document.write( "8 + 2y = 32 ------ Substituting 8 for x in eq (i)
\n" );
document.write( "2y = 32 - 8
\n" );
document.write( "2y = 24
\n" );
document.write( "y = , or 12
\n" );
document.write( "
