. If 9x-3y=12 and 3x-5y=7 then 6x-2y = ?

A.-5
B. 4
C. 2
D. 8

Ans. D

• 9x-3y=12 and 3x-5y=7 or 9x-15y = 21
  
  so 12 y =-9
  y=-9/12= -3/4
  9x= 3y+12= 12-9/4 = 39/4
  x= 39/36=13/12
  
  6x-2y = 6*13/12 - 2*(-3/4) =13/2 +3/2 =16/2 =8..option D

• 9x-3y=12....(1) & 3x-5y=7....(2)
  multiplying 2nd equation by 3 & equaling two equation
  y=-3/4 & x=13/12
  then 6x-2y=6(13/12) - 2(-3/4)
  =(13/2)+(3/2)
  =16/2=8(option D)
