Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

x = 12 - y → (1)

2x + 3y = 29 → (2)

Substitute x = 12 - y into (2)

2(12 - y) + 3y = 29 ← distribute and simplify left side

24 - 2y + 3y = 29

24 + y = 29 ( subtract 24 from both sides )

y = 5

Substitute y = 5 into (1)

x = 12 - 5 = 7

Solution is x = 7, y = 5 → C
