Solve the following system of equations by elimination method:

Given pair of linear equations is

…(i)

And …(ii)

On multiplying Eq. (i) by 3 to make the coefficients of equal, we get the equation as

…(iii)

On subtracting Eq. (ii) from Eq. (iii), we get

⇒ y = 2

On putting y = 2 in Eq. (i), we get

⇒ x = 3

Hence, x = 3 and y = 2 , which is the required solution.
