Answer
Solutions: (3.5, 10)
Work Step by Step
Our two equations are:
1. 4x+2y=34
2. 10x-4y=-5
First lest multiply the first equation by a scalar of 2. We get:
1. 8x+4y=68
2. 10x-4y=-5
Now lets add the two equations. That gives us:
18x=63 (Divide both sides by 18)
x=3.5
Now lets substitute this value of x into the first equation to get the value of y.
4(3.5)+2y=34 (Simplify)
14+2y=34 (Subtract 14 from both sides)
2y=20 (Divide both sides by 2)
y=10
So our solution is (3.5, 10)
