3x + 4y = 17....multiply by 4
-4x - 3y = - 18 ....multiply by 3
-------------------
12x + 16y = 68 (result of multiplying by 4)
-12x - 9y = - 54 (result of multiplying by 3)
------------------add
7y = 14
y = 14/7
y = 2

3x + 4y = 17
3x + 4(2) = 17
3x + 8 = 17
3x = 17 - 8
3x = 9
x = 9/3
x = 3

solution is (3,2)
