Introduction

Read the brief explanation below before attempting the questions.
1.
Simultaneous equations involve solving two or more equations with multiple variables at the same time. Common methods include substitution and elimination. Mastering these techniques allows you to find the values of the variables that satisfy all equations simultaneously.

Practice Questions

Answer all questions. Show your working in the grid spaces provided.
1.
Solve for x and y: 2x + y = 10 x - y = 2
[3 marks]
2.
Solve for x and y: 3x + 2y = 12 x + y = 4
[3 marks]
3.
If 5x - y = 9 and x + 2y = 8, find x and y.
[3 marks]
4.
Solve for x and y: 4x - y = 7 2x + y = 5
[3 marks]
5.
Express y in terms of x from the first equation: 2x + y = 8.
[2 marks]
6.
Using substitution, solve the system: y = 3x + 1 x + y = 9
[3 marks]
7.
Solve for x and y: 2x + 3y = 13 x - y = 1
[3 marks]
8.
Reasoning: If 3x + y = 7 and 2x + y = 5, what is the value of x and y?
