Answer:
y = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
given the 2 equations
5x + y = 9 → (1)
10x - 7y = - 18 → (2)
Multiplying (1) by - 2 and adding to (2) will eliminate the term in x
- 10x - 2y = - 18 → (3)
Add (2) and (3) term by term on both sides
(10x - 10x) + (-7y - 2y) = (- 18 - 18)
0 - 9y = - 36
- 9y = - 36 ( divide both sides by - 9 )
y = 4
Answer:
y = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
We have given a system of equation.
5x+y = 9 eq(1)
10x-7y = -18 eq(2)
We have to find the value of y.
Multiplying eq(1) by 2 , we have
10x+2y = 18
Subtracting above equation from eq(2) , we have
10x+2y-(10x-7y) = 18-(-18)
10x+2y-10x+7y = 18+18
9y = 36
y = 4 which is the answer.
