Answer:

x = -2 and y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equations are :

-5x-2y=6 ...(1)

3x+6y=6 ...(2)

Multiply equation (1) by 3. SO,

-15x-6y=18 ...(3)

Adding equation (2) and (3).

3x+6y-15x-6y = 6+18

-12x = 24

x = -2

Put the value of x in equation (1).

-5(-2)-2y=6

10-2y=6

4=2y

y = 2

So, the value of x is -2 and y is 2.
