The correct Answer is:
To solve the given pair of linear equations: 1. **Equations Given**: \[ 2x - 3y + 4 = 0 \quad \text{(Equation 1)} \] \[ x + 2y - 5 = 0 \quad \text{(Equation 2)} \] 2. **Rearranging the Equations**: - For Equation 1, we can rearrange it to isolate the constant on the right: \[ 2x - 3y = -4 \quad \text{(Equation 1)} \] - For Equation 2, we can also rearrange it: \[ x + 2y = 5 \quad \text{(Equation 2)} \] 3. **Using the Elimination Method**: - We will eliminate one variable by making the coefficients of \(x\) the same in both equations. To do this, we can multiply Equation 2 by 2: \[ 2(x + 2y) = 2(5) \] This gives us: \[ 2x + 4y = 10 \quad \text{(Modified Equation 2)} \] 4. **Setting the Equations for Elimination**: - Now we have: \[ 2x - 3y = -4 \quad \text{(Equation 1)} \] \[ 2x + 4y = 10 \quad \text{(Modified Equation 2)} \] 5. **Subtracting the Equations**: - We can subtract Equation 1 from the Modified Equation 2: \[ (2x + 4y) - (2x - 3y) = 10 - (-4) \] Simplifying this gives: \[ 2x + 4y - 2x + 3y = 10 + 4 \] \[ 7y = 14 \] 6. **Solving for \(y\)**: - Now, divide both sides by 7: \[ y = \frac{14}{7} = 2 \] 7. **Finding the Value of \(x\)**: - Substitute \(y = 2\) back into one of the original equations. We will use Equation 2: \[ x + 2(2) = 5 \] \[ x + 4 = 5 \] \[ x = 5 - 4 = 1 \] 8. **Final Values**: - The solution to the equations is: \[ x = 1, \quad y = 2 \]
