Question

If $D_x=24,D_y=32$ are the values of the determinants for certain simultaneous equations in $x$ and $y$, then find the values of $x$ and $y$

Answer 1

Given $D_x=24,D_y=32$ and $D=8$
Now $x=\frac{D_x}{D}=\frac{24}{8}=3$
$y=\frac{D_y}{D}=\frac{32}{8}=4$
$\therefore$ The value of $x$ and $y$ is $3$ and $4$ respectively.
