9x + 2y = 0
3x - 5y = 17
Multiply the second equation by -3 so now the system looks like:
9x + 2y = 0
-9x + 15y = -51
So now when we add the two equations together (in their like-terms columns), we are left with just one variable:
0x + 17y = -51
Solve for y:
17y = -51
y = -3
And plug y = -3 into either of the original equations to get the value of x:
9x + 2y = 0
9x + 2(-3) = 0
9x - 6 = 0
9x = 6
x = 2/3
So the answer is x = 2/3 and y = -3.

2y-3x=4
Usually elimination is used on two equations and is called linear combination. You could solve for "y." That is customary. 2x+3y=1 3y=-2y+1 y=(-2/3)x+1/3
