Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply second equation by -1

-1 × (3x + 2y) = 3

-3x -3y = -3 now add this to the first equation

7x +2y = 17

(-3x-2y)= -3

7x +2y -3x -2y = 17 -3 (2y will eliminate -2y)

4x = 14

x = 7/2 now by using this information we found we can calculate the value for y

if 3x + 2y = 3 (replace x by 7/2)

3 ×(7/2)+2y = 3 ➡ 21/3 + 2y = 3 ➡ 2y = 3 - 21/3 ➡ 2ty = 15/2 ➡ y = 15/4
