9x + 1y = 38
-5x - 4y = 3
augmented matrix is obtained by joining the numerals on the right hand side of the equations (38 and 3)as an additional column to the coefficient matrix formed by using the coefficients of x and y on the left hand side of the equations ..it is =

we have to bring the augmented matrix into the form
by appropriate transformation ,when we get the solution as x=a and y=b..i hope you know the procedure ..i am giving the stepsbelow with the transformation used..
start
new R1=oldR1/9..here after abbreviated as NR1=OR/9...

NR2=OR2+5*OR1...note that here old R1 refers to already modified row in the above matrix

NR2=OR2*(-9/31)

NR1=OR1-OR2*(1/9)

on simplifying

hence x=5 and y=-7..you can check by substitution in the original equations.
