Answer:
x = 3/2 and y = -8.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given equations are :
2x+y=−5 ....(1)
−2x+y=8 ....(2)
We need to solve the above equations.
Adding equation (1) and (2).
2x+y −2x+y=-5+8
2y = 3
x = 3/2
Put the value of x in equation (1).
[tex]2\times \dfrac{3}{2}+y=-5\\\\3+y=-5\\\\y=-5-3\\\\y=-8[/tex]
So, the solution of the above equations are x = 3/2 and y = -8.
