Question

In Problems $41-60$, use the inverses found in Problems $31-40$to solve each system of equations.

$\left\{\begin{array}{l}3x-y=4\\ -2x+y=5\end{array}\right.$

Short answer

The solution of the system of equations$\left\{\begin{array}{l}3x-y=4\\ -2x+y=5\end{array}\right.$is,$x=9,y=23$.

Step-by-step solution

Step 1. Given information

$\left\{\begin{array}{l}3x-y=4\\ -2x+y=5\end{array}\right.$

The inverse found in problem$32$is,$\left[\begin{array}{cc}1& 1\\ 2& 3\end{array}\right]$.

Step 2. We know that, X=A-1.B

From the given information, $B=\left[\begin{array}{c}4\\ 5\end{array}\right]$.

Substitute the known values in the formula.

$$\begin{gathered} \left[\begin{array}{c}x\\ y\end{array}\right]=X \\ X=\left[\begin{array}{cc}1& 1\\ 2& 3\end{array}\right]\left[\begin{array}{c}4\\ 5\end{array}\right] \\ =\left[\begin{array}{c}1\left(4\right)+1\left(5\right)\\ 2\left(4\right)+3\left(5\right)\end{array}\right] \\ =\left[\begin{array}{c}4+5\\ 8+15\end{array}\right] \\ =\left[\begin{array}{c}9\\ 23\end{array}\right] \end{gathered}$$

So, the solution set is, in ordered pairs$\left(9,23\right)$or$x=9,y=23$.
