Q. Solve the system of equations.5x+12y−10=02x−3y+35=0x=□y=□
Write equations: Write down the system of equations to be solved.We have the following system of equations:5x+12y−10=02x−3y+35=0
Solve for x: Solve the first equation for x.We can rearrange the first equation to express x in terms of y:5x+12y−10=05x=10−12yx=510−12y
Substitute x into second equation: Substitute the expression for x from Step 2 into the second equation.Substituting x=510−12y into 2x−3y+35=0 gives us:2(510−12y)−3y+35=0Multiplying through by 5 to clear the fraction:2(10−12y)−15y+175=020−24y−15y+175=0
Combine terms and solve for y: Combine like terms and solve for y.20−24y−15y+175=0−39y+195=0−39y=−195y=−39−195y=5
Substitute y into x expression: Substitute the value of y back into the expression for x from Step 2.Substituting y=5 into x=510−12y gives us:x=510−12(5)x=510−60x=5−50x=−10
Write solution as ordered pair: Write the solution as an ordered pair.The solution to the system of equations is (x,y)=(−10,5).
