Answer

\(\boxed{x = 4, y = 1}\)

Steps

Step 1 :\(\left\{\begin{array}{l}2 x+y=9 \\ x=6 y-2\end{array}\right.\)

Step 2 :Substitute the expression for x from the second equation into the first equation: \(2(6y - 2) + y = 9\)

Step 3 :Simplify the equation: \(13y - 4 = 9\)

Step 4 :Solve for y: \(y = 1\)

Step 5 :Substitute the value of y back into the second equation to find x: \(x = 6(1) - 2\)

Step 6 :Solve for x: \(x = 4\)

Step 7 :\(\boxed{x = 4, y = 1}\)
