Answer:

HOPE IT HELPED!!!!!!

Explanation:

2x + 3y = 17

3x + 6y = 30

TIMES THE FIRST EQUATION BY TWO:

2(2x + 3y = 17)

4x + 6y = 34

NOW OUR EQUATIONS ARE:

4x + 6y = 34

3x + 6y = 30

SUBTRACT THE FIRST EQUATION BY THE SECOND ONE:

4x + 6y = 34

(-) 3x + 6y = 30

x = 4

THEREFORE:

x = 4

NOW SUBSITUTING x IN THE FIRST EQUATION:

4(4) + 6y = 34

16 + 6y = 34

6y = 34 - 16

6y = 18

y = 18/6

y = 3

THEREFORE:

X = 4

Y = 3

IT IS THE THIRD OPTION...(4,3)
