Convert to Logarithmic Form: Step 1: Convert the equations to logarithmic form to simplify the exponents.- Equation 1: 10x+2y=5 becomes log10(5)=x+2y- Equation 2: 103x+4y=50 becomes log10(50)=3x+4y
Substitute Values into Equations: Step 3: Substitute the logarithmic values back into the equations.- 0.6990=x+2y- 1.6990=3x+4y
Solve System of Equations: Step 4: Solve the system of equations using elimination or substitution.- Multiply the first equation by 3: 3×0.6990=3x+6y- Subtract the first new equation from the second original equation:1.6990−3×0.6990=3x+4y−(3x+6y)1.6990−2.0970=−2y0.6020=−2yy=−0.3010
Find Values of x and y: Step 5: Substitute the value of y back into one of the original equations to find x.- 0.6990=x+2(−0.3010)- 0.6990=x−0.6020- x=0.6990+0.6020- x=1.3010
