Answer: X=-2 & Y=5/2

Explanation:

STEP 1: Find the given equations

x+2y=3 and 3x+4y=1

STEP 2: Try to equate any of the terms by multiplying either of the equations.

HERE, we can multiply the equation x+2y=3 by 2

WE GET, 2x+4y=6 and we can see that 4y terms is common in both te equations

STEP 3: cancel out the matching terms by simple addition or subtraction of the equations.

after solving we get, x=-2.

STEP 4: put the value of x in any of the two quations to get the value of y.

WE GET, the value of y as 5/2.

To find the values of x and y in the system of equations:

Equation 1:
x + 2y = 3

Equation 2:
3x + 4y = 1

We can solve the system using the method of substitution or elimination. Here, I will demonstrate the method of substitution:

Step 1: Solve Equation 1 for x:


x = 3 - 2y

Step 2: Substitute the value of x from Step 1 into Equation 2:


3(3 - 2y) + 4y = 1

Step 3: Simplify and solve for y:


9 - 6y + 4y = 1


-2y = 1 - 9


-2y = -8


y = (-8)/(-2)


y = 4

Step 4: Substitute the value of y back into Equation 1 to find x:


x + 2(4) = 3


x + 8 = 3


x = 3 - 8


x = -5

Therefore, the solution to the system of equations is:


x = -5


y = 4
