Answer:
x = 1 ; y = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]4x + y = 7 \\ y = 7 - 4x[/tex]
Now we know the value of y is 7 - 4x we plug this value to the second equation with y, So,
[tex]3x + 2(7 - 4x) = 9 \\ 3x + (14 - 8x) = 9 \\ - 5x = 9 - 14 \\ - 5x = - 5 \\ x = \frac{ - 5}{ - 5} \\ x = 1[/tex]
Now to find the value of y we use the first equation
[tex]y = 7 - 4x \\ y = 7 - 4(1) \\ y = 7 - 4 \\ y = 3[/tex]
Hope this helps you :)
