Well, it says to avoid fractions. So I did the math: 

Solving for x in the first equation get you: x= \frac{7}{2}-3y

Solving for y in the first equation gets you:y= \frac{7}{6} - \frac{2}{6}x

Solving for x in the second equation gets you: x=4-3y

Solving for y in the second equation gets you:y= \frac{24}{18} - \frac{6}{18}x

If you look you can see the only option that does not give you fractions is if you solve for x in the second equation. So your answer is c! I hope this helps! =)

Solve with subsitution avoiding fractions

<span>2x+6y=7
6x+18y=24

if we solve for x in first, we get x=-3y+7/2, has fractions so no
if we solve for y in first, we get y=-x/3+7/6, has fractions so no
if we solve for x in the 2nd, we get x=-3y+4, no fractions so yay
if we solve for y in the 2nd, we get y=-x/3+4/3, has fractions so no


answer is C

\bf -5x+2\geqslant -48\implies -5x \geqslant -50\implies \stackrel{\textit{now, we're dividing by -5}}{\cfrac{-5x}{-5}\stackrel{\stackrel{\downarrow }{\frac{}{}}}{\leqslant}\cfrac{-50}{-5}}\implies x\leqslant 10

Divide the 10 by 4, which makes the x be 2.5. You can check it by multiplying 4 by 2.5, which will give you 10.
