a) 4x+13y=40 b) 4x+3y=-40c) multiply b per(-1)=-4x-3y-40d) sum a and c: 4x+13y-4x-3y=40-(-40)=>10y=80 => y=8to find x replace y per its value in a or b and get x=-16
Try elimination.4X + 13Y = 40- 1(4X + 3Y = - 40)4X + 13Y = 40- 4X - 3Y = 40-----------------------add10Y = 80Y = 8-------------find X ( top equation )4X + 13(8) = 404X + 104 = 404X = - 64X = - 16----------------------check in both equations for consistency4(- 16) + 13(8) = 40- 64 + 104 = 4040 = 40-------------top checks4(- 16) + 3(8) = - 40- 64 + 24 = - 40- 40 = - 40-------------------both check and are consistentSo, X is,- 16 ( while Y is 8 )
4x+3y = 12 3y = -4x+12 y = -4/3x+4
4x + 3y = 8x + y so 3y - y = 8x - 4x ie 2y = 4x so y = 2x
If you mean: 4x+3y = -1 and x-3y = -34 then x = -7 and y = 9
