NAME: Marks 10

SUBJECT: Mathematics DATE: 03/02/2023 GRADE/DIV: 8

OBJECTIVE: To be able to:
• To be able to solve simple simultaneous equations
SKILL: Thinking and application Skills
Solve the following simultaneous equations to work out the values of x and y , using method of
elimination

1. x + 3y = 6 x−y=2 2. x + 3y = 7 x + 7y = 19

3. 4x + y = 1 7x − y = −12 4. 4x − y = −12 4x + 2y = 0

5. 3x + 2y = 9 x − 2y = −5 6. 3x − 2y = 22 x − 2y = 2

7. x + 4y = 14 x+y=5 8. 3x − 2y = 16 2x + 2y = 14
