for the following system of equations what is the x value of the solution -x + 2y = 6, 6y= x + 18

First of all. let's write the system in standard form:
[tex] \left \{ {{-x+2y=6} \atop {-x+6y=18}} \right. [/tex]
We can subtract the first equation from the second to get
[tex] 4y=12 [/tex]
and thus
[tex] y=3 [/tex]
Now we can substitute this value for [tex] y [/tex] in any of the equations to find the value for [tex] y [/tex]: if for example we choose the first equation, we have
[tex] -x+2\cdot3 = 6 \iff -x+6=6 \iff x=0 [/tex]
