Step-by-step explanation:
given.
3x - 5y = 6 •••> eqn.1
2x + 3y = 61 •••> eqn.2
multiply eqn. 1 by 2 & eqn. 2 by 3
6x - 10y = 12 •••> eqn.3
6x + 9y = 183 •••> eqn.4
now subtract , eqn. 3 - eqn. 4 u'll get
6x - 10y = 12
- 6x - 9y = - 183
-19y = - 171
y = 171 / 19
♧ y = 9
substitute y = 9 in eqn. 1 u'll get
3x - 5(9) = 6
3x - 45 = 6
3x = 45 + 6
3x = 51
x = 51 / 3
♧ x = 17
so values of x = 17 & y = 9
