x-2y=4
x=2y+4
2x+3y=15
2(2y+4)+3y=15
4y+8+3y=15
7y=7
y=1
-------------
2x+3*1=15
2x=15-3
2x=12/2
x=6
---------------
6-2*1=4
4=4

put the system of linear equations into standard form
---
x - 2y = 4
2x + 3y = 15
---
copy and paste the above standard form linear equations in to this solver:

solution by matrix method:
x = 6
y = 1
--
now by substitution:
---
x - 2y = 4
x = 4 + 2y
2x + 3y = 15
2(4 + 2y) + 3y = 15
8 + 4y + 3y = 15
7y = 7
y = 1
x = 4 + 2y
x = 4 + 2
x = 6
---
solution by substitution:
x = 6
y = 1
