\underline{ \underline{ \bf{step} - 1}}

Taking first equation,


  • 2x + y = 20


  • y = 20 - 2x


\underline{ \underline{ \bf{step} - 2}}

plugging the value of y in second equation,


  • 6x - 5y = 12


  • 6x - 5(20 - 2x) = 12


  • 6x - 100 + 10x = 12


  • 16x = 12 + 100


  • x = (112)/(16)


  • x = 7


\underline{ \underline{ \bf{step} -3}}

plugging the value of x in first equation,


  • 2x + y = 20


  • (2 * 7) + y = 20


  • 14 + y = 20


  • y = 20 - 14


  • y = 6

Conclusion :


  • x = 7

  • y = 6
