follow the same technique that i had told u in the previous question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

since you have to find the value of y so we will try to make coeffiecient of x same

OpenStudy (anonymous):

u can make cofficient of x same by mutiplying equation first by 2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Wouldnt it be 2x-11

OpenStudy (anonymous):

after this multiply eqn second by 5 follow this two get two separate equations..................
