x and y are the packs of organic and inorganic fertilizer, respectively.
pounds of nitrogen added = 2x + 6y = 120
pounds of potassium added = 3x + 2y = 54
eliminate the y terms. subtract the first equation from 3 times the second equation.
9x + 6y = 162
-2x - 6y = -120
------------------
7x = 42
x = 6
y = 18
