Question

2x + 3y = 16
3x + 4y = 22

System of Equations

Answer 1

Answer:

x=2, y=4. (2, 4).

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+3y=16

3x+4y=22

---------------

3(2x+3y)=3(16)

-2(3x+4y)=-2(22)

--------------------------

6x+9y=48

-6x-8y=-44

------------------

y=4

2x+3(4)=16

2x+12=16

2x=16-12

2x=4

x=4/2

x=2
