You can  put this solution on YOUR website! solve by elimination  
2c - 3d = 14  
5c - 6d = 32  
----------------------- 
Multiply thru the top equation by 2 to get: 
4c - 6d = 28 
5c - 6d = 32 
------------------------ 
Subtract and solve for "c": 
c = 4 
--- 
Solve for "d": 
2c-3d = 14 
2*4 - 3d = 14 
-3d = 6 
d = -2
