    (5, - 6)

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Given the 2 equations

    6x + 3y = 12 → (1)

    6x - 5y = 60 → (2)

    Multiply (2) by - 1 and add to (1) will eliminate the term in x

    - 6x + 5y = - 60 → (3)

    Add (1) and (3) term by term

    (6x - 6x) + (3y + 5y) = (12 - 60)

    8y = - 48 (divide both sides by 8)

    y = - 6

    Substitute y = - 6 into (1) or (2) and siolve for x

    Using (1), then

    6x - 18 = 12 (add 18 to both sides)

    6x = 30 (divide both sides by 6)

    x = 5

    Solution is (5, - 6)
