Given the following system, what variable will eliminate?

5 – 2 = 17
4x + 2y = 12
Ох
Оy
Both variables will eliminate.
Neither x nor y will eliminate.​

Neither as the equation has different variables

Neither.

This is because one equation is without variables and the other is with variables.
You can cancel out nothing
