To solve: The given system of equations
Answer to Problem 67PPS
The solution of the given system is given by,
Explanation of Solution
Given Information:
The system of equations
Formula Used
Here, two equations with two unknown variables are given. The approach used is variable elimination and simplification.
(1) Both equations are multiplied with a factor such that one of the variables has identical coefficients.
(2) Add the modified equations to eliminate the particular variable and solve for the other variable.
(3) Substitute the obtained variable in one of the equations to get the other variable.
Calculation Here, the equations are,
Multiplying each of the terms in equation (2) by-
Now, adding corresponding terms of (3) and (1) gives,
Substituting the value of
Thus, the solution for the given system of equations can be expressed as,
