Answer
x = -2
y = 2
Work Step by Step
- 2x + 3y = 10
3x + 4y = 2
multiply by 3 first equation and by 2 second equation and add the equations to eliminate x
-6x + 9y = 30
6x + 8y =4
______________
17 y = 34
y = 2 divide by 17 both sides
let y = 2 in second equation
3x + $4\times2$ = 2
3x + 8 = 2
3x = -6 subtract from -8
x = -2 divide by 3
