2x+3y=7

ax−bx+ay+by=3a+b−2

(or) 2x+3y=7 …………(1)

(a−b)x+(a+b)y=3a+b−2 ………….(2)

Given: the pair of linear equations have infinite number of solutions

2/ a−b ​= 3/ a−b​ = 7/ 3a+b−2 

⇒2/ a−b ​= 3/ a+b

3/ a+b ​=7/ 3a+b−2

⇒2a+2b=3a−3b

⇒−a=−5b

∴a=5b

3(3a+b−2)=7(a+b)

9a+3b−6=7a+7b

2a−4b−6=0

a−2b=3

Put a=5b in a−2b=3 we get

5b−2b=3

⇒3b=3

or b=1

∴a=5×1=5, b=1

Hence a=5,b=1.
