Solve 8x - 2y = 0 and -6x + 14y = 50 using elimination. Show steps. Put your answer in coordinate form (x,y)

Respuesta :

The required solution (1, 4) of a linear system of the equation is determined by the elimination method.

Given the linear system of equations:

8x - 2y = 0 or 4x - y = 0 …(i)

-6x + 14y = 50 or -3x + 7y = 25 …(ii)

Equations (i) and (ii) constitute a system of two first-degree equations in the two variables x and y.

So, we have to find out the value of 'x’ and 'y’.

By multiplying 7 by equation (i) and adding both equations

28x - 7y -3x + 7y = 25

25x = 25

x = 25/25

x = 1

Substitute the value of x = 1 in the equation (i), and solve for y

4(1) - y = 0

y = 4

Hence, the required solutions are x = 1 and y = 4.
