Answer:

x = 5 and y = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equations are :

6x + 3y = 12 ...(1)

4x + y = 14 ...(2)

Multiply equation (2) by 3.

12x + 3y = 42 ...(3)

Subtract equation (1) from (3).

12x + 3y-(6x + 3y) = 42-12

12x+3y-6x-3y = 30

6x = 30

x = 5

Put th value of x in equation (2).

4(5) + y = 14

20 +y = 14

y = -6

So, the solution of the equations are x = 5 and y = -6.
