Answer:

Option B is correct

(9, 3)

Explanation:

Given the system of equations:


x-2y = 3 .....[1]


2x-3y = 9 ......[2]

Multiply equation [1] by 2 both sides we have;


2x-4y = 6 .....[3]

Subtract [3] from [2] to eliminate x we get;


2x-3y-2x+4y = 9-6

Combine like terms;


y = 3

or

y = 3

Substitute in [1] we have;

x-2(3) = 3

x -6 =3

Add 6 to both sides we have;

x = 9

Therefore, the solution for the given system of equations is, (9, 3)
