How do you Solve 2x plus 3y equals 29 x equals 4?

Answer 1

2x + 3y = 29x= 4

find x

29x= 4

x = (4/29)

sub x into the first part of the sum

2x + 3y = 4

2*(4/29) + 3y = 4 note * means multiply

(8/29) + 3y = 4

3y = 4 - (8/29)

3y = (108/29) note 4* 29 minus 8 = 108

y = (36/29)

there is probably a quicker way to do this.
