Question

Solve the pair of linear equations,x minus y equals 2 text  and  end text x plus y equals 2 Also find p if p = 2x + 3

hintHint:

find x by eliminating y and find y by substituting x in the equations  .

The correct answer is: x = 2 ; y = 0 ; p = 7


    Ans :- x = 2 ; y = 0 ; p = 7
    Explanation :-
    table attributes columnalign right left right left right left right left right left right left columnspacing 0em 2em 0em 2em 0em 2em 0em 2em 0em 2em 0em end attributes row cell x plus y equals 2 minus text  eq  end text 1 end cell row cell x minus y equals 2 minus text  eq  end text 2 end cell end table
    Step 1 :- Find x by eliminating y .
    Adding  eq1 and eq2
    left parenthesis x plus y right parenthesis plus left parenthesis x minus y right parenthesis equals 2 plus 2 not stretchy rightwards double arrow x plus x plus y minus y equals 4
    not stretchy rightwards double arrow 2 x equals 4
     rightwards double arrow x space equals space 2
    Step 2:- substitute x = 2 in eq 1 to get y
    x plus y equals 2 not stretchy rightwards double arrow 2 plus y equals 2
    not stretchy rightwards double arrow y equals 2 minus 2
     therefore space y space equals space 0
    Step 3:- calculate P
    Given p = 2x + 3
    not stretchy rightwards double arrow p equals 2 left parenthesis 2 right parenthesis plus 3 not stretchy rightwards double arrow p equals 4 plus 3
     therefore space p space equals space 7
    therefore space x space equals space 2 semicolon space y space equals space 0 is the solution to the equation and value of p = 7

    table attributes columnspacing 1em end attributes row cell left parenthesis x plus 2 right parenthesis squared plus left parenthesis y minus 3 right parenthesis squared equals 40 end cell row cell y equals negative 2 x plus 4 end cell end table
    Which of the following could be the x-coordinate of a solution to the system of equations above?

    Note:
    If we had to find the y-coordinate of the system of equations, then we put this value of x in the equation y equals negative 2 x plus 4 to get the value of y. Here, we got a quadratic equation of x, which did not have any term containing x, so it was easier to solve. If the quadratic equation was of the form  a x squared plus b c plus c equals 0, then we would use the quadratic formula  x equals fraction numerator negative b plus-or-minus square root of b squared minus 4 a c end root over denominator 2 a end fraction to solve the equation.
