SUBTRACTING---(1) from----(2)
we get
3x+5y = 9
5x+3y = 7

——————
-2x +2y = 2
=> -x + y = 1----------(3)
adding ---(2) and --(1)
3x +5y = 9
5x +3y = 7
——————
8x + 8y = 16
=> x + y = 2----------(4)
from--(3) and ---(4)
we get,
-x + y = 1
x + y = 2
————
2y = 3
=> y = 3/2 Put in --(3)
we get,
-x +3/2 = 1
=> x = 3/2 - 1
=> x = (3-2)/2
=> x = 1/2
