Question

please solve in the substitution method 2y = 3x + 14x = 4

Answer 1

x = 1, y = 2

Explanation:

Given:

2y = 3x + 1 ...(1)

4x = 4 ...(2)

Using substitution method:

from equation (2), we can get the value of x

4x = 4

divide both sides by 4:

4x/4 = 4/4

x = 1

We will substitute 1 for x in equation 1:

2y = 3(1) + 1

2y = 3 + 1

2y = 4

divide both sides by 2:

2y/2 = 4/2

y = 2

The solution: x = 1, y = 2
