5a-b=17
3a+2b=5
Slove please

Multiply the first equation by 2 so you get 10a-2b=34 then add the two equations to eliminate the b variable so you have 13a=39 so a=3. plug in 3 into the second equation to solve for b and you get -2 and then plug in 3 and -2 into the first equation to check if they are equal which they are. answer is 3,-2
