Solve the following pair of linear equations by the elimination method and the substitution method: (i) 3x – 5y – 4 = 0 and 9x = 2y + 7 (ii) x/2+ 2y/3 = -1 and x-y/3 = 3
Solve the following pair of linear equations by the elimination method and the substitution method:
(i) 3x – 5y – 4 = 0 and 9x = 2y + 7
(ii) x/2+ 2y/3 = -1 and x-y/3 = 3
(i) 3x – 5y – 4 = 0 and 9x = 2y + 7
By the method of elimination:
3x – 5y – 4 = 0 ……………… (i)
9x = 2y + 7
9x – 2y – 7 = 0 ……………………(ii)
When the equation (i) and (iii) is multiplied we get,
9x – 15y – 12 = 0…………………(iii)
When the equation (iii) is subtracted from equation (ii) we get,
13y = -5
y = -5/13 ………………………….(iv)
When equation (iv) is substituted in equation (i) we get,
3x +25/13 −4=0
3x = 27/13
x =9/13
∴ x = 9/13 and y = -5/13
By the method of Substitution:
From the equation (i) we get,
x = (5y+4)/3 ……………………… (v)
Putting the value (v) in equation (ii) we get,
9(5y+4)/3 −2y −7=0
13y = -5
y = -5/13
Substituting this value in equation (v) we get,
x = (5(-5/13)+4)/3
x = 9/13
∴ x = 9/13, y = -5/13
(ii) x/2 + 2y/3 = -1 and x-y/3 = 3
By the method of Elimination.
3x + 4y = -6 ………………. (i)
x-y/3 = 3
3x – y = 9 ……………………. (ii)
When the equation (ii) is subtracted from equation (i) we get,
-5y = -15
y = 3 ……………….(iii)
When the equation (iii) is substituted in (i) we get,
3x – 12 = -6
3x = 6
x = 2
Hence, x = 2 , y = -3
By the method of Substitution:
From the equation (ii) we get,
x = (y+9)/3 …………………(v)
Putting the value obtained from equation (v) in equation (i) we get,
3(y+9)/3 +4y =−6
5y = -15
y = -3
When y = -3 is substituted in equation (v) we get,
x = (-3+9)/3 = 2
Therefore, x = 2 and y = -3
