<PRE><B>Question 449441</B>
2	m		-5	n	=	13	.............1	
5	m	+	3	n	=	17	.............2	
Eliminate y								
multiply (1)by 		3						
Multiply (2) by		5						
6	m		-15	n	=	39		
25	m		15	n	=	85		
Add the two equations								
31	m				=	124		
/	31							
m	=	4.00						
plug value of 			m	in (1)				
2	m	+	-5	n	=	13		
8		+	-5	n	=	13		
			-5	n	=	13		-8
			-5	n	=	5		
				n	=	-1.00
