Find the values of x and y that satisfy both the given equations.
y−2x=4 and y−3x=2
(2,8)
To find the solution of the equation, we do the following:
y−2x=4
⇒y=2x+4 ............(i)
Then, y−3x=2
⇒y=3x+2 ............(ii)
Equating the value of y from both the equations:
⇒2x+4=3x+2
⇒x=2
Substituting the value of x to get the value of y:
⇒y=3(2)+2
⇒y=8
