Solution

Detailed step-by-step solution:

Solving the system P of equations:
y=2x14 ...equation (1)
y=2x+14 ...equation (2)
Adding equation (1) and equation (2), we get:
y=2x14
+y=2x+14
2y=0+0
2y=0
y=0
Putting y=0 in equation (1),
0=2x14
2x=14
x=142 (dividing both sides by 2)
x=7
Solution is (7,0).
System P does not have (5,4) as a solution.

Solving the system Q of equations:
x5y=15 ...equation (1)
y=23x23 ...equation (2)
Multiply equation (2) with 3 to eliminate the fraction from the equation
3(y=23x23).
3y=2x2
2x+3y=2 ...equation (3)
To make the coefficient of x the same, multiply equation (1) with 2:
2(x5y=15)
2x10y=30 ...equation (4)
Adding equations (3) and (4):
2x10y=30
2x+3y=2
07y=28 [adding equations (3) and 4]
7y=28
y=4,
Substitute y=4 in equation (1):
x5(4)=15
x+20=15
x=1520
x=5
Solution is (5,4).

Solving system R:
3x+3y=27 ...equation (1)
xy=1 ...equation (2)
Multiply equation (2) with 3 to get the same coefficients of x and y, we get:
3x3y=3 ...equation (3)
Adding equation (1) and equation (3), we get:
3x+3y=27
3x3y=3
6x+0=30
x=306
x=5
Putting x=5 in equation (2), we get:
5y=1
y=1+5
y=4
y=4
Solution is (5,4).

Solving system S:
y+2x=14 ...equation (1)
x2y=3 ...
2y+x=3 ...equation (2) (reversing above equation)
Multiplying equation 2 with 2 to get the coefficient of x to be the same, we get:
4y+2x=6 ...equation (3)
Subtracting equation (3) from equation (1):
y+2x=14
4y+2x=6
5y+0=20
5y=20
y=205
y=4
Putting y=4 in equation (1), we get:
4+2x=14
2x=14+4
2x=10
x=5
Solution is (5,4).

All the system has (5,4) as a solution except system P.
Option A is correct.
