Solving Linear Equation by Substitution Method Algebra Watch Video
Q.
4x + 3y = 1 and x = 1 – y
Solution:
In substitution method, we have a given equation of two variables, x and y.
First you put the value of x in other given equation 4x = 2x + 3y and calculate the value of y.
Steps are:
x = 1 –y
Plug ‘x’ in first equation.
4(1 –y) + 3y = 1
Solve this equation for y
4 –4y + 3y = 1
4 –y = 1
y = 3
Substitute y = 1 in any one of the given equation and find the value of other variable
x = 1 –y
x = 1 –3 = –2
Answer is : x = –2, y = 3
