3x/2-5y/3=-2, x/3+y/2=13/6 solve equations in substitution method
1. Solve the following pair of linear equations by the substitution method.
(vi) 3x/2-5y/3=-2, x/3+y/2=13/6
Solution
(3x)/2-(5y)/3=2
Make lcm of 2/3
(9x-10y)/6=-2
9x-10y=-12
x/3+y/2=13/6
make lcm of 3,2
(2x+3y)/6=13/6
2x+3y=6x13/6
2x+3y=13--------(2)
Let we take equation (1) and make x form
9x-10y=-12
9x=10y-12
X=(10y=12)/3--------(3)
Substitute x value in equation (2)
2x+3y=13
2(10y-12)/9+3y=13
(20y-24)/9+3y=13
(20y-24+27y)/9+3y=13
47y-24=117
47y=117+24=141
Y=141/47=3
Substitute y value in equation (3)
X=(10y-12)/9=10(3)-12/9=30-12=9=18/9=2
X=2, Y=3
