If [tex]2x + z = 2y[/tex] and [tex]2x + 2y + z = 20[/tex], what is the value of [tex]y[/tex]?

Asked by Lheart

Answer (3)

The **value **of y is 5
Given,
2x+z=2y
2x+2y+z=20
Now,
From **equation **substitute the value of 2x,
2x = 2y -z
substitute the value in second equation ,
2y -z + 2y + z = 20
Now solve the terms with like variables ,
4y = 20
y = 5
