Qx-4x=0
Consider the second equation. Subtract 4x from both sides.
\left(Q-4\right)x=0
Combine all terms containing x,y.
Px-2x=-3y
Consider the first equation. Subtract 2x from both sides.
Px-2x+3y=0
Add 3y to both sides.
\left(P-2\right)x+3y=0
Combine all terms containing x,y.
\left(Q-4\right)x=0,\left(P-2\right)x+3y=0
To solve a pair of equations using substitution, first solve one of the equations for one of the variables. Then substitute the result for that variable in the other equation.
\left(Q-4\right)x=0
Pick one of the two equations which is more simple to solve for x by isolating x on the left hand side of the equal sign.
x=0
Divide both sides by -4+Q.
3y=0
Substitute 0 for x in the other equation, \left(P-2\right)x+3y=0.
y=0
Divide both sides by 3.
x=0,y=0
The system is now solved.
