Answer:

(6,-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

-3x-9y = 18 (equation 1)

4x+3y = 12 (equation 2)

multiply equation 2 by 3, and add it to equation 2

-3x-9y = 18

12x+9y = 36

-----------------

X's cancel out

9x = 54

Divide both sides by 9

x = 6

Plug in 6 for x in any of the original equations

(Plugging into Equation 2)

4(6)+3y = 12       Multiply 4(6)

24+3y = 12         Subtract 24 from both sides

3y = -12              Divide 3 on both sides

y = -4

Therefore the solution is (6,-4).
