2x + 3y = -17 is one equation in a coincidental system of two linear equations. The other equation is _ y = _ x – 102.
Find the other two variables for the second equations.
Rewrite the first equation: 3y=-2x-17. The equations are coincidental and -17 is one sixth of -102 so the other coefficients need to be multiplied by 6: 18y=-12x-102.
