Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

1) lets use elimination to solve this:

multiply 10x+4y=24 with 3 in order to get "4y" into "12y"

3(10x+4y=24)

30x+12y=72

now subtract both equations to eliminate 'y"

30x+12y=72

-

6x+12y=48

---------------------

24x=24

x=1

now substitute 1 in the above equation:

6(1)+12y=48

6+12y=48

12y=42

y=7/2
