Write the problem as a mathematical expression.

2j+3k=-5
6j+3k=2

Solve for j in 2j+3k=-5.

j=-52-3k2

6j+3k=2

Replace all occurrences of j with -52-3k2 in each equation.

-15-6k=2

j=-52-3k2

Solve for k in -15-6k=2.

k=-176

j=-52-3k2

Replace all occurrences of k with -176 in each equation.

j=74

k=-176

List all of the solutions.

 

j=74,k=176
