Given system of equations are: 

2x - 3y = 13  —(i) 

7x - 2y = 20  —(ii) 

Multiply (i) by 2 and (ii) by 3, we get: 

 4x - 6y = 26  —(iii) 

 21x - 6y = 60 —(iv) 

Subtract (iii) from (iv) we get: 

17x = (60-26) = 34 

 x = 2 

Substitute the value of x = 2 in (i), we get: 

4 - 3y = 13 

-3y = 9 

y = -3 

Hence, the solution is x = 2 and y = -3.
