For the given set of equations, x = 0 and y = 3.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
From the question,
[tex]-x + 2y = 6[/tex], take this as equation 1,
[tex]6y =x+18, x - 6y = -18[/tex], take this as equation 2.
Step 2:
When we add equation 1 and equation 2, the x variable is canceled out and y can be calculated.
[tex]-4y = -12, y = \frac{-12}{-4}, y = 3.[/tex]
Step 3:
Substituting this value of y in any of the previous equations we will get x's value.
Here this value of y i.e y = 3 is substituted in equation 1.
[tex]-x + 6 = 6, -x = 6 -6, -x=0, x=0.[/tex]
So we have x = 0 and y = 3.
