x=1 and y=0x=1andy=0

Explanation:

Here ,

x+2y=1to...........................(1)

3x-y=3to...........................(2)

:.-y=3-3x

:.y=3x-3to......................(3)

Substituting value of y into (1)

x+2(3x-3)=1

:.x+6x-6=1

7x=1+6=7

:.color(red)(x=1

Subst. x=1 into (3)

y=3(1)-3=3-3

:.color(red)(y=0

Hence ,

x=1 and y=0
