The THIRD sentence is correct.
The first equation can be multiplied by -12 and the second equation by 5, to eliminate x.
Let's do this:
(1st equation) 5*x + 13*y = 232 / *(-12)
(2nd equation) 12*x + 7*y = 218 / *(5)
---------------------------------
When multiplied, we get:
(1st equation) -60*x - 156*y = -2784
(2nd equation) 60*x + 35*y = 1090
---------------------------------
Further, first equation now will be obtained when ADDING 1st and 2nd equation together:
(1st equation) -60x+60x-156y+35y=-2784+1090
2nd equation we get from just writing any equation from the beginning, for example, the second one:
(2nd equation) 12*x + 7*y = 218
-----------------------------------------
(1st equation) 0*x - 121*y = -1694
(2nd equation) 12*x + 7*y = 218
------------------------------------------
(1st equation) -121*y = -1694 [x variable is in this step eliminated]
(2nd equation) 12*x + 7*y = 218
----------------------------------------------
(1st equation) y = 1694/121
(2nd equation) 12*x + 7*y = 218
----------------------------------------------
(1st equation) y = 14
(2nd equation) 12*x + 7*14 = 218
----------------------------------------------
(1st equation) y = 14
(2nd equation) 12*x + 98 = 218
----------------------------------------------
(1st equation) y = 14
(2nd equation) 12*x = 218 - 98
----------------------------------------------
(1st equation) y = 14
(2nd equation) 12*x = 120
----------------------------------------------
(1st equation) y = 14
(2nd equation) x = 120/12
----------------------------------------------
(1st equation) y = 14
(2nd equation) x = 10
----------------------------------------------
So, solution of the system of this two equations is obtained, and it is:
(x,y)=(10,14)
