Answer:

The x-coordinate of of the solution of  system of equations is 3.

Option (c) is correct .

Step-by-step explanation:

As the system of equations are

3x + y = 6

x - y = 6

Now multiply x - y = 6 by 3 and subtrated from 3x + y = 6  .

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

4y = -12

[tex]y = \frac{-12}{4}[/tex]

y = -3

Put in the x - y = 6

x - (-3) = 6

x + 3 = 6

x = 6 -3

x = 3

Therefore the x-coordinate of of the solution of  system of equations is 3.

Option (c) is correct .
