The correct Answer is:
To solve the given pair of linear equations using the substitution method, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Write down the equations We have the following equations: 1. \( \sqrt{2}x + \sqrt{3}y = 0 \) (Equation 1) 2. \( \sqrt{3}x - \sqrt{8}y = 0 \) (Equation 2) ### Step 2: Rearrange one equation to express one variable in terms of the other Let's rearrange Equation 2 to express \( x \) in terms of \( y \): \[ \sqrt{3}x = \sqrt{8}y \] Now, divide both sides by \( \sqrt{3} \): \[ x = \frac{\sqrt{8}}{\sqrt{3}}y \] This simplifies to: \[ x = \frac{2\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{3}}y \quad \text{(Equation 3)} \] ### Step 3: Substitute the expression for \( x \) into the other equation Now we will substitute the value of \( x \) from Equation 3 into Equation 1: \[ \sqrt{2}\left(\frac{2\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{3}}y\right) + \sqrt{3}y = 0 \] This simplifies to: \[ \frac{2\sqrt{2} \cdot \sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{3}}y + \sqrt{3}y = 0 \] \[ \frac{4}{\sqrt{3}}y + \sqrt{3}y = 0 \] ### Step 4: Combine like terms To combine the terms, we can express \( \sqrt{3}y \) in terms of a common denominator: \[ \frac{4}{\sqrt{3}}y + \frac{3}{\sqrt{3}}y = 0 \] \[ \frac{4 + 3}{\sqrt{3}}y = 0 \] \[ \frac{7}{\sqrt{3}}y = 0 \] ### Step 5: Solve for \( y \) The only solution for this equation is: \[ y = 0 \] ### Step 6: Substitute back to find \( x \) Now that we have \( y = 0 \), we can substitute this value back into Equation 3 to find \( x \): \[ x = \frac{2\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{3}}(0) = 0 \] ### Final Solution Thus, the solution to the system of equations is: \[ x = 0, \quad y = 0 \]
