You can put this solution on YOUR website! 5x+3y=-11, 7x-2y=19 solve by elimination. Sol'n:
 5x+3y = -11 ---(1)x 2, 10x + 6y = -22 ----(1')
 7x-2y = 19 ---(2)x 3, 21x - 6y = 57 ----(2')
 add 1' and 2'
 31x = 55, divide by 31 on both side to obtain the value of x,
 x = 35/31
 then find y: from (2)
 7(35/31) - 19 = 2y
 2y = -344/31, then divide by 2 on both side to obtain the value of y.
 y = -172/31
 thus
 x = 35/31 and y = -172/31 <----- answer
