Explanation:

Now form equation for y,

→ 6x - y = 2

→ y = 6x - 2

Then the value of x will be,

→ -4x + 3y = 1

→ -4x + 3(6x - 2) = 1

→ -4x + 18x - 6 = 1

→ 14x = 1 + 6

→ x = 7/14

→ [ x = 1/2 ]

Hence, the value of x is 1/2 (or) 0.5.

Now the value of y will be,

→ y = 6x - 2

→ y = 6(1/2) - 2

→ y = 3 - 2

→ [ y = 1 ]

Hence, the value of y is 1.
