For this case we have the following system of equations:
-2x + y = -3\\-x + 2y = 3

We multiply the first equation by -2:


4x-2y = 6

We add the equations:


-x + 2y = 3\\4x-2y = 6

Adding we have:


4x-x-2y + 2y = 3 + 6\\3x = 9\\x = \frac {9} {3}\\x = 3

We look for the value of "y":


-x + 2y = 3\\-3 + 2y = 3\\2y = 3 + 3\\2y = 6\\y = \frac {6} {2}\\y = 3

So, the solution is
(x, y) :( 3,3)

Answer:


(x, y) :( 3,3)
