12x 6x + y = 1Please explain how you got your answer,thanks! :)

12x - 3y = -3


6x +   y  =
1


First multiply everything in the second equation by
3


By multiplying, you should
get


12x - 3y =
-3


18x + 3y = 3 
now add -3y with 3y ( which means also add 12x with 18x and -3 with 3 )


By adding, you should
get


30x = 0 divide both sides
by 30


By dividing you should
get


x = 0/30
simplify


x = 0
which is your answer for " x "


Now plug 0
into one of the equation


6 ( 0 ) +   y  =
1
Multiply 6 with 0


By multiplying you
should get


y = 1 which is your
answer for " y "


So your answer is x = 0  ; y
= 1
