6x = 8y - 38
17y - 68 = 0 , y = 4
2x = 10 - 3(4) = -2
x = -1

3y = 10-2x => y = (10-2x)/3
Substitute this into other equation:
4((10-2x)/3) = 3x + 19
(40-8x)/3 = 3x + 19
40-8x = 9x + 57
40-57 = 17x => x = -1
Then substitute into either of your original equations to get y.

Ok this is what I did:
First I rearranged the formulae:
2x = 10-3y (1)
3x = 4y-19 (2)
Then I did the formula (1) times 3 to make:
6x = 30 - 9y (3)
and I multiplied the formula (2) by 2 to make:
6x = 8y - 38 (4)
Then I did formula (4) minus formula (3) to make:
0 = 17y-68
therefore 17y=68
y = 4
I substituted y into formula (1) to get:
2x = -2
therefore x = -1
Substituted both values of x and y into (2) to check my values were correct.
Hope this is a bit clearer

I Solved it in my way that method is right i [email protected]
2x+3y=10 > 1
3x-4y=19 > 2
>1 *4
8x+12y = 40 >3
>2* 3
9x-12y=57 > 4
8x+12y = 40 >3
9x-12y =57 > 4
4-3
1x=17
x=17
subst in 1:
34 + 3y = 10
3y = -24
y= -8
x=17
y= -8
check in 2:
51 - 32 = 19
3x-4y=19
thanks for all yr help

The formula you posted originally i.e. 3x +19 = 4y does not equal what you just posted now i.e. 3x - 4y = 19... it equals 3x - 4y = -19

solve simultaneously.
2x=10-3y x3
3x=4y-19 x2
6x=20-9y
6x=8y-38
0=58-17y
y=58/17
solve simultaneously.
2x=10-3y x3
3x=4y-19 x2
6x=20-9y
6x=8y-38
0=58-17y
y=58/17
17y = 58
then u divide by 17 so u r left with
y= 58 divided by 17

AFTER THIS U ADD 17y to both sides so u have
17y = 58
then u divide by 17 so u r left with
y= 58 divided by 17

We have already discovered that this is wrong as 2x=10-3y (x3) does not equal 6x = 20-9y therefore all the steps after that are incorrect (even though method is correct)
