The correct Answer is:
To solve the equations: 1. **Given equations:** - \( 2x + 7y = 11 \) (Equation 1) - \( 5x + \frac{35}{2}y = 25 \) (Equation 2) 2. **Rearranging Equation 1 for \( x \):** - Start with Equation 1: \[ 2x + 7y = 11 \] - Isolate \( 2x \): \[ 2x = 11 - 7y \] - Divide by 2 to solve for \( x \): \[ x = \frac{11 - 7y}{2} \] - Let's label this as Equation 3. 3. **Substituting Equation 3 into Equation 2:** - Substitute \( x \) from Equation 3 into Equation 2: \[ 5\left(\frac{11 - 7y}{2}\right) + \frac{35}{2}y = 25 \] - Distributing \( 5 \): \[ \frac{55 - 35y}{2} + \frac{35}{2}y = 25 \] 4. **Combining the terms:** - Combine the \( y \) terms: \[ \frac{55 - 35y + 35y}{2} = 25 \] - The \( -35y \) and \( +35y \) cancel out: \[ \frac{55}{2} = 25 \] 5. **Clearing the fraction:** - Multiply both sides by 2 to eliminate the fraction: \[ 55 = 50 \] - This is a contradiction, indicating that there is no solution. 6. **Conclusion:** - The system of equations is inconsistent, meaning there are no values of \( x \) and \( y \) that satisfy both equations simultaneously.
