Answer:
a = 3
b = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Simultaneous equation
3a = 2b + 1
3a - 2b = 1 ------------------(I)
3b = 5a - 3
-5a + 3b = -3 --------------(II)
Multiply equation (I) by 3 & equation (II) by 2 and then add. So, now 'b' will be eliminated and we can find the value of 'a'.
(I)*3 9a - 6b = 3
(II)*2 <u>-10a + 6b = -6</u> {Now add}
-a = -3
a = -3/(-1)
Plugin a = 3 in equation (I)
3*3 - 2b = 1
9 - 2b = 1
-2b = 1 - 9 {Subtracting 9 from both sides}
-2b = - 8
b = (-8)/(-2) {Dividing both sides by (-2_}
