Certainly! We need to solve the system of linear equations given by:
[tex]\[
\begin{aligned}
&-x + 2y = 4 \quad \text{(Equation 1)}\\
&x - 2y = 1.3 \quad \text{(Equation 2)}
\end{aligned}
\][/tex]
To find [tex]\( x \)[/tex] and [tex]\( y \)[/tex], we can use the method of elimination or substitution. Here, we will use the elimination method.
### Step 1: Add the two equations
Let's add Equation 1 and Equation 2 to eliminate [tex]\( y \)[/tex]:
[tex]\[
(-x + 2y) + (x - 2y) = 4 + 1.3
\][/tex]
Simplify the left-hand side:
[tex]\[
-x + x + 2y - 2y = 4 + 1.3
\][/tex]
This reduces to:
[tex]\[
0 = 5.3
\][/tex]
This seems incorrect since [tex]\( 0 \neq 5.3 \)[/tex]. Checking again, there might be an error in the understanding process. Let's check calculations:
### Step 2: Recalculate carefully
Adding should be recalculated:
[tex]\[
(-x + 2y) + (x - 2y) = 4 + 1.3
\][/tex]
[tex]\[
(-x + x) + (2y - 2y) = 4 + 1.3
\][/tex]
[tex]\[
0 + 0 = 5.3
\][/tex]
So, this sidesteps to reevaluation.
### Step 3: Reinterpret and multiply carefully for elimination
I’ll rethink by multiplying scenarios:
Multiply Equation 2 by [tex]\( 1 \)[/tex] and Equation 1 by [tex]\( -1 \)[/tex]:
[tex]\(
( x - 2y = 1.3) \rightarrow ( x - 2y = 1.3) \quad (No Change)
\)[/tex]
Multiply second by -1:
[tex]\((-1) (-x + 2y = 4) \rightarrow x - 2y = -4)\)[/tex]
So we align:
[tex]\( x - 2y = 1.3 \quad \tag{3}\)[/tex]
Add elements carefully:
[tex]\(( x - 2y = 1.3) \implies (x - 2y = -4) lessons/ rechecked.)
Thus, re-tighten for substitute:
