You can do this by cross multiplying
Answer:
(- 9, - 9)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
3x - 4y = 9 → (1)
- 3x + 2y = 9 → (2)
Adding (1) and (2) will eliminate the term in x
(1) + (2) term by term
(3x - 3x) + (- 4y + 2y) = (9 + 9)
0 - 2y = 18
- 2y = 18 ( divide both sides by - 2 )
y = - 9
Substitute y = - 9 into (1) or (2) and evaluate for x
(1) → 3x + 36 = 9 ( subtract 36 from both sides )
3x = - 27 ( divide both sides by 3 )
x = - 9
Solution is (- 9, - 9)
To be able to find the value of X, we have to cross multiply the two fractions then solve the equation.
As so,
6/4 = 15/x
Cross Multiply:
6 x X = 6x
4 x 15 = 60
We cross multiplied, now we can set up the equation:
6x = 60
Simplify: (Get X by itself)
Divide 6 on each side
6 / 6x = 60 / 6
x = 60 / 6
x = 10
Now we have the total of X! To check our answer, we can substitute X for 10 in the original equation.
As so:
6/4 = 15/10
6/4 = 1.5
15/10 = 1.5
Correct! Our answer is X = 10!

Step 1. Multiply first equation with -3 and the second one with 2. You'll get:
Step 2. Add both equations together. You'll get:
, which gives x = -2
Step 3. Replace x = -2 in the first equation and calculate y.
The solution is: x=-2, y=5
