HW16 9.4.2 Simultaneous Linear Equations
𝑦 = 2𝑥 − 1 𝑥 + 4𝑦 = 41
𝑦−𝑥 =5 𝑥 + 2𝑦 = 23
𝑦 = 2𝑥 + 1 2𝑥 + 𝑦 = 19
𝑦 = −2𝑥 + 9 3𝑥 − 𝑦 = 21
Use one algebraic method (substitution or elimination) to solve each pair of simultaneous equations.
𝑥 = 𝑦 − 10 𝑥 − 𝑦 = −1
𝑦 = 2𝑥 2𝑦 + 3𝑥 = 12
𝑦 + 𝑥 = 27 5𝑥 + 8𝑦 = 9
𝑦 = 4(𝑥 + 3) 2𝑥 + 3𝑦 = 4
3𝑥 + 4𝑦 = 8 3𝑥 + 2𝑦 = 8
2𝑥 − 𝑦 = −13 4𝑥 + 𝑦 = 9
Solve using graphical method.
𝑦 = 2𝑥 + 1 𝑦=𝑥+4 3𝑥 + 𝑦 = 8 4𝑥 + 2𝑦 = 12

Den buys 2 cakes and 3 coffees and it costs him RM9. Ang buys 2 cakes and 1 coffee and it costs her
RM5.
Let 𝑥 represent the cost of a cake and 𝑦 represent the cost of a coffee.
a) Write two equations to represent the information. Don’t solve it.
b) Solve your equations to find the cost of a cake and the cost of a coffee.
Sam’s Science mark is 15 less than his Maths mark. The total of his two marks is 145. Find Sam’s mark for
each subject.
1000 tickets were sold to some adults and children. Adult tickets cost RM8.50, children’s cost RM4.50.
A total of RM7300 was collected. How many tickets were each sold to the adults and children?
