Answer

(i) Given,

⇒ 3(2x + 1) - 2x + 2 + 5 = 0

⇒ 3.2x + 3 - 2x.22 + 5 = 0

⇒ 3.2x - 4.2x + 3 + 5 = 0

⇒ -2x + 8 = 0

⇒ 2x = 8

⇒ 2x = 23

⇒ x = 3.

Hence, x = 3.

(ii) Given,

⇒ 3x = 9.3y

⇒ 3x = 32.3y

⇒ 3x = 32 + y

⇒ x = y + 2 ……(i)

Given,

⇒ 8.2y = 4x

⇒ 23.2y = (22)x

⇒ 23 + y = 22x

⇒ 2x = y + 3 …….(ii)

Subtracting (i) from (ii) we get,

⇒ 2x - x = (y + 3) - (y + 2)

⇒ x = 1.

Substituting value of x in (i) we get,

⇒ 1 = y + 2

⇒ y = -1.

Hence, x = 1 and y = -1.
