Answer:

The solution to the equation is as follows;


x = (5)/(19) ,\ and \ y= (2)/(19)

Explanation:

Given;

5x - 3y = 1

3x + 2y = 1

Solving both equation simultaneously;

2: 10x - 6y = 2

3: 9x + 6y = 3

--------------------------

19x + 0 = 5

x = 5/19

substitute the value of x in any of the equations above and solve for y;

5x - 3y = 1

5 (5/19) - 3y = 1

25/19 -3y = 1


3y = (25)/(19) -1\\\\3y = (25-19)/(19) \\\\3y = (6)/(19) \\\\y = (2)/(19)
