You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Lets call
2x+3y=19----(1)
3x-2y=8----(2)
multiply equ 1 by 3 and equ 2 by 2
6x+9y=57---(3)
6x-4y=16----(4)
subtract equ 4 and equ 3
13y=41
y=41/13
y=3.2
put y=3.2 in equ 1
2x+3(3.2)=19
2x+9.6=19
2x=19-9.6
2x=9.4
x=9.4/2
x=4.7
The value of x=3.2,y=4.7
HOPE THIS HELPS.....
BEST REGARDS
