1)  

Solve each of the folloeing system of equations by elimination method.

 x + 4y = 9,   x - 4y = 3

X = Answer: 6

Y = Answer: 34


SOLUTION 1 :

x + 4y = 9   ..... (1)

x - 4y = 3   .... (2)

This system is linear in x and y,

Adding (1) and (2)

x + 4y = 9

x - 4y = 3

       2x = 12

x = 122  = 6.

Substituing x = 6 in (1), We get

6 + 4y = 9

           4y = 9 - 6

           4y = 3

                    y = 34

Hence, ( 6 , 34 ) is the solution to given system of equations.

Verification:

L.H.S. of (1) = x + 2y = 6 + 4 x 34 = 6 + 3 = 9.

R.H.S. of (2) = x - 2y = 6 - 4 x 34 = 6 - 3 = 3.

 

 



2)  

Solve each of the folloeing system of equations by elimination method.

 x + 4y = 7,   x - 4y = 1

X = Answer: 4

Y = Answer: 34


SOLUTION 1 :

x + 4y = 7   ..... (1)

x - 4y = 1   .... (2)

This system is linear in x and y,

Adding (1) and (2)

x + 4y = 7

x - 4y = 1

       2x = 8

x = 82  = 4.

Substituing x = 4 in (1), We get

4 + 4y = 7

           4y = 7 - 4

           4y = 3

                    y = 34

Hence, ( 4 , 34 ) is the solution to given system of equations.

Verification:

L.H.S. of (1) = x + 2y = 4 + 4 x 34 = 4 + 3 = 7.

R.H.S. of (2) = x - 2y = 4 - 4 x 34 = 4 - 3 = 1.

           5y = 3

                    y = 35

Hence, ( 6 , 35 ) is the solution to given system of equations.

Verification:

L.H.S. of (1) = x + 2y = 6 + 5 x 35 = 6 + 3 = 9.

R.H.S. of (2) = x - 2y = 6 - 5 x 35 = 6 - 3 = 3.

x - 4y = 1

       2x = 10

x = 102  = 5.

Substituing x = 5 in (1), We get

5 + 4y = 9

           4y = 9 - 5

           4y = 4

                    y = 44

Hence, ( 5 , 44 ) is the solution to given system of equations.

Adding (1) and (2)

x + 3y = 9

x - 3y = 3

       2x = 12

x = 122  = 6.
