Answer:
D (3,1)
Step-by-step explanation:
solving simultaneous equations
Arrange equations
2x+y=7
3x-4y=5
make y side cancell by addition by multiplying by 4 and 1 as shown
4{2x+y=7}
1{3x-4y=5}
8x+4y=28
3x-4y=5
11x=33
x=33/11=3
substitute for x=3 in 3x-4y=5
9-4y=5
4=4y
y=1
Answer:
D(3,1)
Step-by-step explanation:
The given equations are:
[tex]2x+y=7...(1)[/tex]
and
[tex]3x-4y=5...(2)[/tex]
Multiply equation (1) by 4.
[tex]\Rightarrow 8x+4y=28...(3)[/tex]
Add equation (2) and (3)
[tex]\Rightarrow 11x=33[/tex]
Divide through by 11.
[tex]\Rightarrow x=3[/tex]
Put x=3 into equation (1)
[tex]2(3)+y=7[/tex]
[tex]6+y=7[/tex]
[tex]y=7-6[/tex]
[tex]y=1[/tex]
The solution is (3,1)
The correct choice is D
