Solve the following simultaneous equations: 5x + 4y = 4, x - 12y = 20

Given, Equations : 5x + 4y = 4, x - 12y = 20 ⇒ x - 12y = 20 ⇒ x = 20 + 12y ....(1) Substituting value of x from equation (1) in 5x + 4y = 4, we get : ⇒ 5(20 + 12y) + 4y = 4 ⇒ 100 + 60y + 4y = 4 ⇒ 100 + 64y = 4 ⇒ 64y = 4 - 100 ⇒ 64y = -96 ⇒ y = . Substituting value of y in equation (1), we get : ⇒ x = 20 + ⇒ x = 20 + 6(-3) ⇒ x = 20 - 18 ⇒ x = 2. Hence, x = 2, y = .
