Question

Please help thank you

Answer 1

x = 2, y= -1

Explanation:

12x - y = 25

9x + y = 17

add both equations to eliminate y

21x = 42

divide by 21

x = 42/21

x = 2

sub x in equation i to find y

12(2) - y = 25

24 - y = 25

-y = 1

therefore y = -1, x = 2

Answer 2

D

Explanation:

subsitute each of the x and y values for each of the equations and if they both equal each other It is correct.
