Answer:
(x, y) = (-16/5, 13[tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex])
Step-by-step explanation:
4x + 9y = 24
x + y = 10 $\Rightarrow$ x = 10 - y
Substituting the value of x (second equation) into the first equation, we get:
4 * (10 - y) + 9y = 24
40 - 4y + 9y = 24
5y = -16
y = -16/5.
So, x = 10 - (-16/5) = 10 + 3[tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex] = 13[tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex]
