Solve the simultaneous equations 3x - y = 5, 4x - 3y = -1. Hence, find p, if y = px - 3.

Given, 3x - y = 5 ......(i) 4x - 3y = -1 .....(ii) Solving (i) we get, ⟹ y = 3x - 5 .....(iii) Substituting value of y from eqn. (iii) in eqn. (ii) we get, ⟹ 4x - 3(3x - 5) = -1 ⟹ 4x - 9x + 15 = -1 ⟹ -5x = -1 - 15 ⟹ -5x = -16 ⟹ x = . Substituting value of x in eqn. (iii) we get, Given, y = px - 3. Substituting value of x and y in equation, Hence, x =
