10^6 = 10 *10*10*10*10*10 = 1,000,000
10^2 = 10*10 = 100
1000000/100 = 10,000 times larger
I would solve the first equation for x and then sub that value into x in the second equation. That's the easiest way. x - 2y = 3 solved for x is x = 2y+3. Now sub that in for x in the second equation: 5(2y+3)+3y=2 and 10y + 15 + 3y = 2. 13y = -13, and y = -1. Now sub that y value into either equation to solve for x: x = 2(-1) + 3 gives us an x value of x = 1. Therefore, your solution to this system is (1, -1), first choice above.
