    Solve the system of linear equations \[x+y=1,\]\[x-2y=4\].

    A)  \[x=2,y=-5\]    

    B)  \[x=1,y=2\]

    C)  \[x=2,\,y=-1\]

    D)  \[x=-1,y=2\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Given system of linear equations is \[x+y=1\] ?.(i) \[x-2y=4\] ??(ii) On subtracting Eq. (i) from EQ. (II), we get \[\begin{align}   & x+y=1 \\  & x-2y=4 \\  & -\,\,\,\,\,\,+\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,- \\  & \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ \\  & 3y=-3 \\ \end{align}\] \[y=-1\] On putting \[y=-1\]in Eq. (i) we get \[x-1=1\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[x=2\]
