Answer:
Writing the system of equations in matrix form AX=B
where A is the 2×2 coefficient matrix, X=(
x
y
) and B is the 2×1 matrix of constants.
Here, A=(
3
2
−2
1
) and B=(
3
16
)
We can write, X=A
−1
B, where

Substituting the values we get,
(
x
y
)=

×(
3×1+2×16
(−2)×3+3×16
)
(
x
y
)= (

6
).
Hence, x=5 and y=6.
