Question
Solve the following simultaneous equation.
x + y = 11 ; 2x - 3y = 7
Advertisements
Solution
x + y = 11 ...(I)
2x - 3y = 7 ...(II)
Multiply (I) with 3
3x + 3y = 33 ...(III)
Adding (II) and (III)
2x - 3y = 7
3x + 3y = 33
+
5x = 40
x = `40/5`
⇒ x = 8
Putting the value of x in (I)
8 + y = 11
y = 11 - 8
⇒ y = 3

So, let the first number be 2x and the second number be `square`.
From the given condition,
`((2x) + square)/(square + square) = square/square`
`square (2x + square) = square (square + square)`
`square + square = square + square`
`square - square = square - square`
`- square = - square`
x = `square`
So, The first number = `2 xx square = square`
and, Second number = `3 xx square = square`
Hence, the two numbers are `square` and `square`
