Enter Simultaneous Equations:

<-- Equation 1
<-- Equation 2

Use the elimination method to solve:

90A + 20B = 13000

270A + 30B = 33000

Check Format

Equation 1 is in the correct format.

Check Format

Equation 2 is in the correct format.

Step 1: Multiply Equation 1 by 270:

270 * (90a+20b=13000) --> 24300a + 5400b = 3510000

Step 2: Multiply Equation 2 by 90:

90 * (270a+30b=33000) --> 24300a + 2700b = 2970000

Step 3: Equation 1 - Equation 2:

24300a + 5400b = 3510000 - (24300a + 2700b = 2970000)
-(24300a + 2700b = 2970000)

5400b - 2700b = 3510000 - 2970000

Step 4: simplify and solve for b:

2700b = 540000

b  =  540000
  2700

b = 200

Step 5: Rearrange Equation 1 to solve for a:

90a = 13000 - 20b

Divide each side by 90

90a
90
=
  
13000 - 20b
90

a  =  13000 - 20b
  90

Step 6: Plug b = 200 into equation 1:

a  =  13000 - 20(200)
  90

a  =  13000 - 4000
  90

a  =  9000
  90

a = 100


What is the Answer?
a = 100
