The values of n and p which makes the system of equations true are 10 and 20 respectively.
What is a linear equation?
It is defined as the relation between two variables, if we plot the graph of the linear equation we will get a straight line.
If in the linear equation, one variable is present, then the equation is known as the linear equation in one variable.
We have system of equation:
p=2n and
p−5=1.5n
Put p = 2n in the other equation.
2n - 5 = 1.5n
2n = 1.5n +5 (add 5 on both sides)
0.5n = 5 (subtract 1.5n on both sides)
n = 10 (divide by 0.5 on both sides)
Put n = 10 in the equation p = 2n
p = 2(10) = 20
Thus, the values of n and p which makes the system of equations true are 10 and 20 respectively.
