Question 248427: solve by elimination method.
0.3x-0.2y=4
0.5x+0.3y=71/23
I think I have part of this solved, but I am very confused because the solution I came up with for the part that I do have solved is. 2902/437 this can't be right.

is NOT the value of either coordinate in the solution set of the system presented. But before I show you how I got the correct answer, I want to know what makes you say "This can't be right" Write back and we'll talk.
