Answer:
x = 4/7 and y = 48/7
Explanation:
We need to solve the system of equations using elimination method
-3x + 2y = 12....... equation 1
9x + y = 12...........equation 2
Multiply the 2nd equation with 2
18x + 2y = 24 ............equation 3
Now, subtracting equation 3 from equation 1
- 3x - 18x + 2y - 2y = 12 - 24
-21x = 12
x = 12/21 = 4/7
-3(4/7) + 2y = 12
-12/7 + 2y = 12
2y = 12 + 12/7
2y = 96/7
y = 48/7
Therefore, the system of equations using elimination. −3x + 2y = 9 x + y = 12 is x = 4/7 and y = 48/7
