Question 1128374
.
<pre>
Your system can be read in this way


    ((3/4)x + (1/2)y = 5,
    (-1/4)x - (3/2)y = 1,


or in this way


    3/(4x) + 1/(2y) = 5,
    -1/(4x) - 3/(2y) = 1,


depending on how to put PARENTHESES into equations.


So, the way you presented the problem is <U>AMBIGOUS</U>.


To avoid ambiguity, <U>YOU</U> must put parentheses in your formula <U>BEFORE POSTING IT TO THE FORUM</U>.
