Hi there!

In order to solve, you can use substitution. This means that you use one equation and solve for one variable, then use that one equation and plug it into the other equation. Here's how we'd do it:

WORK:
x = 12 - y (since x is already solved for, we'll use that to plug into the other given equation.
2(12 - y) + 3y = 29 (using substitution)
24 - 2y + 3y = 29
24 + y = 29
y = 5
Plug the value of y back into the first equation
x = 12 - 5
x = 7

ANSWER:
A - x = 7, y = 5
