Answer:

(0,3)

Explanation:

Please note that 6x - 4y = -12, after all terms are div. by 2, is 3x - 2y = -6.

Add this version of the second equation to the first equation:

4x+2y=6

3x - 2y = -6

------------------

7x = 0, so x = 0.

If x = 0, then the first equation becomes 2y = 6, or y = 3, and the solution to this system is (0, 3).
