Question

Find x and y if `x[(4),(-3)] + y[(-2),(3)] = [(4),(6)]`

Sum

Solution

`x[(4),(-3)] + y[(-2),(3)] = [(4),(6)]`

`[(4x),(-3x)] + [(-2y),(3y)] = [(4),(6)]`

4x – 2y = 4

(1) ⇒ 2x – y = 2

(2) ⇒ 3x – y = 2

– x + y = 2

Add (1) and (2)

2x – y = 2    ....(1)
– x + y = 2  ....(2) 
   x       = 4

Substitute the value of x = 4 in (2)

– 4 + y = 2

y = 2 + 4 = 6

The value of x = 4 and y = 6
