The correct answer is option A. Which is the solution of the given equation will be (15,15).

What is an equation?

It is defined as the relation between two variables, if we plot the graph of the linear equation we will get a straight line.

Given equations are solved as:-

a - 1.2b = -3 or a = -3 + 1.2b

0.2a + 0.6b = 12

Put the value of a from equation 1 to the equation second.

0.2 ( -3 + 1.2 b)  + 0.6b = 12

-0.6 + 0.24b + 0.6b = 12

0.84b = 12  + 0.6

0.84 b = 12.06

b  = 15

Put the value of b in the first equation to find the value of a.

a = 1.2b - 3

a = (1.2 x 15) - 3

a = 15

Therefore the correct answer is option A. Which is the solution of the given equation will be (15,15).
