Advanced Math - Inverse of a Matrix

Solve the given equations. Example is in the second pic. 

The inverse of a matrix can be used to solve a system of linear equations.
Suppose we have a system of m linear equations in n variables, X1, X2,...,Xn
a11x1 + a12X2 + ... + a1nxn = b₁
a21x1 + a22x2 + + a2nxn = b₂
a31x1 + a32x2+...+ a3nxn = b3
which can be written as a matrix equation AX = B where
A =
a11 a 12
a21 a22

Since A ¹A = I and IX = X, we have X = A¹¹B.
Example
Use the inverse of the coefficient matrix to solve the system.
2x - 9y = 15
3x + 6y = 16
