answer C

to eliminate x, multiply the top equation by 7 then add the equations

it is not A because if the bottom equation is multiplied by 6, the y’s will not cancel out if the bottom is subtracted from the top (since 6x - -6x is 12 not 0)

it is not B because adding the equations will not eliminate either variable

doing option C eliminates x since -7x + 7x is 0
