Answer» Answer: 3x+2y=10---(1) 4x−2y=4---(2) Using formula for CROSS multiplication method: (b 1
c 2
−b 2
c 1
) x
= (c 1
a 2
−a 1
c 2
) y
= (a 1
b 2
−a 2
b 1
) −1
So, from equation (1) and (2) we can write the VALUE of a,b and c. 2×4−(−2)×10 x
= 10×4−3×4 y
= 3×(−2)−4×2 −1
8+20 x
= 40−12 y
= −6−8 −1
28 x
= 28 y
= −14 −1
28 x
= −14 −1
−14x=−28 x=2 28 y
= −14 −1
−14y=−28 y=2 Therefore, x=2,y=2 |
