Answer:

[tex]x=6,y=42[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The equations are

[tex]y=5x+12[/tex]

[tex]3y+4x=150[/tex]

Substituting the first equation in the second we get

[tex]3(5x+12)+4x=150[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow 15x+36+4x=150[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{150-36}{19}[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow x=6[/tex]

[tex]y=5x+12=5\times 6+12\\\Rightarrow y=42[/tex]

So, the required values are [tex]x=6,y=42[/tex]
