Solution
Given equations are
3
x
+
2
y
=
4
....(1)
and
2
x
−
3
y
=
7
....(2)
Multiply equation (1) by
3
and equation (2) by
2
Therefore,
9
x
+
6
y
=
12
....(3)
and
4
x
−
6
y
=
14
.....(4)
Now add both the equations,we get
13
x
=
26
⇒
x
=
2
Put this value of
x
in equation (1)
3
(
2
)
+
2
y
=
4
⇒
6
+
2
y
=
4
⇒
2
y
=
−
2
⇒
y
=
−
1
Therefore, the solution is
x
=
2
,
y
=
−
1

Q.
Solve the following system of linear equation graphically and shade the region between the two lines and x-axis:
(i) 2x + 3y = 12,
x − y = 1
(ii) 3x + 2y − 4 = 0,
2x − 3y − 7 = 0
(iii) 3x + 2y − 11 = 0
2x − 3y + 10 = 0
