get in case of a function. Solve each system by substitution 12.) Solution * 2x + y = 5 * y = 5- 2x Substituting in first equation 4x – 5y = -11 4x – 5(5-2x) = -11 4x – 25 + 10x = -11 14 x = -11 + 25 14x = 14 x = 1 Therefore, we get : So, y = 5-2x = 5 -2*1 = 3 x = 1, y =3 Solve each system by elimination. 20.) Solution 4x +y = -23 ………………………eq 1 x - 2y = -17…………………………….eq 2 Performing 2*eq 1 + eq 2 we get : 8x + 2y = -46 x – 2y = -17 This
