Question
Solve the following using the substitution method and find the value of x and y:
4x – y = 14
3y = 6
- 1, 5
- 4, 5
- 3, 5
- 4, 2
Hint:
An equation with the maximum order of 1 and an equation of a straight line is called the linear equation.
The correct answer is: 4, 2
Step 1 of 1:
We have given linear equations
4x – y = 14……………. 1
3y = 6……………….. 2
From 2
3y = 6
y = 2
Substituting y in 1st equation,
4x – 2 = 14
4x = 16
x = 4
The substitution method is the algebraic method to solve simultaneous linear equations.
