Dear student
the given system of equations is2x3+3y5-17=03x4+2y3-19=0By cross-multiplication, we getx35×-19-23×-17=-y23×-19-34×-17=123×23-34×35x-575+343=-y-383+514=149-920x-115=-y112=1-1180x-115=1-118015x=180x=12and -y112=1-118012y=180y=15

2x/3 + 3y/5 = 17
(10x+9y=255)/15
Hence, 10x+9y=255
Let x be 2
10*2 +9y=255
20+9y=255
9y=255-20
9y=235
y=235/9
So, x=2, y=26.11....

3x/4+2y/3=19
(9x+8y=288)/12
9x+8y=288
Let x be 3
hence, 27+8y=288
8y=288-27
8y=261
y=261/8
So, x=3 and y=32.625
