Solution

The correct option is D x=913,y=513
3x5y=4..(1)

9x=2y+7
9x2y=7..(2)

Multiplying equation (1) by 3, we get
9x15y=12..(3)

Subtracting equation (2) from equation (3), we get
13y=5
y=513

Substituting the value of y in equation (2), we get
9x2(513)=7
9x+1013=7
9x=71013
9x=911013
9x=8113
x=8113×9
x=913
