Step 1
The equations are given by,
x9y=13...(1)
5x+3y=15...(2)
Step 2
Multiply the equation (1) by 5 and subtract with equation (2) as follows.
5x45y=65
5x+3y=15
48y=50
y=5048
y=2524
Substitute y=2524 in equation (1).
x9(2524)=13
x22524=13
x=13+22524
x=8724
x=298
The solution of the system f equations are x=298,y=2524.
