GCSE Maths Practice: simultaneous-equations

Question 7 of 10

Solve simultaneous equations using elimination method.

‹ ›

\( \begin{array}{l} \text{Solve the simultaneous equations:} \\ 5 \times x + 2 \times y = 24 \quad (1) \\ 3 \times x - 2 \times y = 0 \quad (2) \end{array} \)

Select all correct options:

\( x = 3 \) \( y = 4.5 \) \( x = 2 \) \( y = 5 \)

Check the solution in both equations.

Combine equations to remove one variable, then solve the other.
