2x - 3y = 2

3x + 2y = 3

Simultaneous Equations.

Arbitrarily decide which letter to eliminate.

In this case 'y'.

To do this we bring the coefficients of 'y' to the same value. . To do this multiply the top equation by '2' and the bottom eq'n by.3.

Hence

4x - 6y = 4

9x + 6y = 9

We now add the two equations. The addition of '-6y + 6y = 0 ', So 'y' is eliminated.

Hence

13x = 13

x = 1

To find 'y' , we substitute 'x = 1' into either equation.

Hence

4(1) - 6y = 4

4 - 6y = 4

-6y = 0

y = 0

So the answer in ( x,y ) form is ( 1,0 ) .
