विकल्प

• –5

• 5

• –3

• 3

Answer 1

If x = 2 – y and 2y = x – 11 then the value of y is –3.

Explanation:

Given the equations:

1. x = 2 – y
2. 2y = x – 11

Substitute (x = 2 – y) from the first equation into the second equation:

2y = (2 – y) – 11

2y = 2 – y – 11 

2y = –9 – y 

Add (y) to both sides:

2y + y = –9 

3y = –9 

Divide both sides by 3:

y = –3

So, the value of y is –3.
