Questions and Answers

What is the solution to the system of equations $x + y = 5$ and $2x - 3y = 4$ using the elimination method?

  • x = 4, y = 1
  • x = 3, y = 2 (correct)
  • x = 2, y = 3
  • x = 1, y = 4
  • What is the solution to the system of equations $3x - 5y - 4 = 0$ and $9x = 2y + 7$?

  • x = -1, y = -2
  • x = -1, y = 2 (correct)
  • x = 1, y = 2
  • x = 2, y = 1
  • What fraction satisfies the conditions: adding 1 to the numerator and subtracting 1 from the denominator makes the fraction $\frac{1}{2}$, and adding 1 to the denominator makes it $\frac{1}{3}$?

  • 3/7
  • 2/5 (correct)
  • 4/9
  • 3/8

    Exercise 3.3: Solving Linear Equations

    Part 1: Elimination Method and Algebraic Methods

    • Solve the pair of linear equations using elimination and algebraic methods:
      • Equation (i): x + y = 5 and 2x - 3y = 4
      • Equation (ii): 3x - 5y - 4 = 0 and 9x = 2y + 7

    Part 2: Forming and Solving Linear Equations

    • Form the pair of linear equations and solve them using the elimination method:
      • Problem: A fraction changes to 1/2 when 1 is added to the numerator and 1 is subtracted from the denominator, and changes to 1/3 when 1 is added to the denominator.
      • Goal: Find the original fraction.
