The Answer is b: x = 18, y = -20
Proof:
Solve the following system:
{4 x + 3 y = 12 | (equation 1)
{7 x + 5 y = 26 | (equation 2)
Swap equation 1 with equation 2:
{7 x + 5 y = 26 | (equation 1)
{4 x + 3 y = 12 | (equation 2)
Subtract 4/7 × (equation 1) from equation 2:
{7 x + 5 y = 26 | (equation 1)
{0 x+y/7 = (-20)/7 | (equation 2)
Multiply equation 2 by 7:
{7 x + 5 y = 26 | (equation 1)
{0 x+y = -20 | (equation 2)
Subtract 5 × (equation 2) from equation 1:
{7 x+0 y = 126 | (equation 1)
{0 x+y = -20 | (equation 2)
Divide equation 1 by 7:
{x+0 y = 18 | (equation 1)
{0 x+y = -20 | (equation 2)
Collect results:
Answer: {x = 18, y = -20

Greetings from Brasil...
Follow the reasoning.
288 ÷ 2 = 144
and 144 its a perfect square (144 = 12²)
It is visible that if we multiply 288 by 1/2, we will obtain a perfect square, but we will do this via a simple equation
288 · X = 144
X = 144 ÷ 288
X = 0,5 ⇔ X = 1/2
