2a+3b=16,2a+8b=26

Solution

2 a + 3 b = 16, 2 a + 8 b = 26

Solution

a = 5, b = 2

Solution steps

[2 a + 3 b = 16 2 a + 8 b = 26]

Isolate

a

for

2 a + 3 b = 16 : a = \frac{16 - 3 b}{2}

Substitute

a = \frac{16 - 3 b}{2}

[2 \cdot \frac{16 - 3 b}{2} + 8 b = 26]

Simplify

[16 + 5 b = 26]

Isolate

b

for

16 + 5 b = 26 : b = 2

For

a = \frac{16 - 3 b}{2}

Substitute

b = 2

a = \frac{16 - 3 \cdot 2}{2}

\frac{16 - 3 \cdot 2}{2} = 5

a = 5

The solutions to the system of equations are:

a = 5, b = 2

7 x - 2 y = 20, 11 x + 15 y + 23 = 0

2x+3y=13,x-5y=-13

2 x + 3 y = 13, x - 5 y = - 13

x - y = 5, 2 x + 3 y = 10

3x+4y=14,2x+5y=21

3 x + 4 y = 14, 2 x + 5 y = 21
