use the elimination method to solve the system of equations choose the correct ordered pair 7x+4y=39 2y+4y=14

Sagot :

[tex]x = 5 \: and \: y = 1.[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]7x + 4y = 39 \: - {eq}^{n} (1)[/tex]

[tex]2x + 4y = 14 \: \: - {eq}^{n} (2)[/tex]

Multiply Equation no (1) with 2 and Equation no (2) with 7.

[tex]14 x + 8y = 78.[/tex]

[tex]14x + 28y = 98.[/tex]

[tex]( - ) \: \: \: ( - ) \: \: \: ( - )[/tex]

[tex]0x + -20y = - 20[/tex]

[tex] - 20y = - 20[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{ - 20}{ - 20} [/tex]

[tex]y = 1[/tex]

Substitute the value of "y" in Equation no (1)

[tex]7x + 4y = 39.[/tex]

[tex]7x + 4(1) = 39.[/tex]

[tex]7x + 4 = 39.[/tex]

[tex]7x = 39 - 4[/tex]

[tex]7x = 35.[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{35}{7} [/tex]

[tex]x = 5.[/tex]

Answer:

[tex] \:   7x+4y=39 2x+4y=14 A. 5,4 B. 3,2 C. 5,1 D.[/tex]
