Set up standards equations
Standard equation 1 = ax + by = c and Standard equation 2 = dx + ey = f.
Find a, b, c in ax + by = c
2m + 3s = 24.3
a = 2, b = 3, c = 24.3
Find d, e, f in dx + ey = f
3m + 4s = 35
d = 3, e = 4, f = 35
Step 1, calculate Delta (Δ):
Δ = a * e - b * d
Δ = (2 * 4) - (3 * 3)
Δ = 8 - 9
Δ = -1
Step 2, calculate the numerator for m
Numerator(m) = c * e - b * f
Numerator(m) = (24.3 * 4) - (3 * 35)
Numerator(m) = 97.2 - 105
Numerator(m) = -7.8
Step 3, calculate the numerator for s
Numerator(s) = a * f - c * d
Numerator(s) = (2 * 35) - (24.3 * 3)
Numerator(s) = 70 - 72.9
Numerator(s) = -2.9
Evaluate and solve:
| m = | Numerator(m) | |
| Δ |
| m = | -7.8 | |
| -1 |
m = 7.8
| s = | Numerator(s) | |
| Δ |
| s = | -2.9 | |
| -1 |
s = 2.9
