Answer:


[(33)/(61), -3(23)/(61)]

Step-by-step Step-by-step explanation:

{55x + 2y = 23

{113x + 3y = 51

−55⁄113[113x + 3y = 51]

{55x + 2y = 23

{−55x - 1 52⁄113y = 24 93⁄113 >> New Equation

_____________________

61⁄113y = −1 93⁄113

______ ________

61⁄113 61⁄113


-3(23)/(61) = y [Plug this back into both equations above to get the x-coordinate of 33⁄61];
(33)/(61) = x
