Answer:

x=16
y=6

Explanation:

first take 3y to the otherside
> x= 3y-2
plug this equation in the second one to find y
> y+3(3y-2)=54

we can now solve this and find that y would be equal to 6, now plug 6 in as y in either of the equations and you can find x

> 3(6)-x=2
all thats left is to just put the 18 on the other side and find that x is equal to 16
