Here, x + y = 18 and xy = 12
Then x = 18 - y
Substituting the value of x, we have
x (18 - y) = 12
18x - xy = 12
18x - 12 = 12
18x = 12 + 12 = 24

Answer:
x+y=8
x=8-y
xy=12
(8-y)y=12
8y-y²=12
y²-8y-12=0
y²-6y-2y-12=0
y(y-6)-2(y-6)=0
(y-6)(y-2)=0
y-6=0
y=6
y-2=0
y=2
taking y=2
x=8-2=6
taking y=6
x=8-6=2
