Use Cramers Method to solve l + s = 125 and 3s + 5l = 475

Enter Simultaneous Equations:

<-- Equation 1
<-- Equation 2


 

Use Cramers method to solve:

l + s = 125
3s + 5l = 475

Equation 1 is in the correct format.
Equation 2 is in the correct format.

Find a, b, c in ax + by = c

l + s = 125
a = 1, b = 1, c = 125

Find d, e, f in dx + ey = f

3s + 5l = 475
d = 5, e = 3, f = 475

Step 1, calculate Delta (Δ):

Δ = a * e - b * d
Δ = (1 * 3) - (1 * 5)
Δ = 3 - 5
Δ = -2

Step 2, calculate the numerator for l

Numerator(l) = c * e - b * f
Numerator(l) = (125 * 3) - (1 * 475)
Numerator(l) = 375 - 475
Numerator(l) = -100

Step 3, calculate the numerator for s

Numerator(s) = a * f - c * d
Numerator(s) = (1 * 475) - (125 * 5)
Numerator(s) = 475 - 625
Numerator(s) = -150

Evaluate and solve:

l  =  Numerator(l)
  Δ

l  =  -100
  -2







s  =  Numerator(s)
  Δ

s  =  -150
  -2














Solve using Gauss Jordan Elimination


What is the Answer?

s = 75
