Solve for x and y:
2x - `(3y)/4 = 3 ,5x = 2y + 7`
рдЙрддреНрддрд░
The given equations are:
2x - 3ЁЭСж4 = 3 …..(i)
5x = 2y + 7 ……..(ii)
On multiplying (i) by 2 and (ii) by `3/4`, we get:
4x -`3/2y = 6` …...(iii)
`15/4 x = 3/2y + 21/4 ` ................(iv)
On subtracting (iii) and (iv), we get:
`1/4x =-3/4`
⇒ x = 3
On substituting x = 3 in (i), we get:
`2 xx 3 - (3y)/4 = 3 `
⇒ `(3y)/4 = (6-3) = 3`
⇒ y = `(3xx4)/4 = 4`
Hence, the solution is x = 3 and y = 4.
