[tex]-5x=17+8y \\ x= - \frac{17+8y}{5} \\ 2x-7y=-17 \\ 2* \frac{17+8y}{5} -7y=-17 \\ \frac{34+16y}{5} -7y=-17 \ we \ bring \ to \ the \ same \ denominator \ \\34+16y-35y=-85 \\ -19y=-85-34 \\ 19y=119 \\ y= \frac{119}{19} \\ x= -\frac{ 17+ 8* \frac{119}{19} }{5} \\ x= - \frac{ 17 + \frac{952}{19} }{5} \\ x= - \frac{ \frac{323+952}{19}}{5} \\ x= -\frac{ \frac{1275}{19} }{5} \\ x= -\frac{1275}{19} * \frac{1}{5} \\ x= -\frac{255}{19}[/tex]
