Answer: x = 1 and y = -1

Explanation:

Since both equations are equal to y, that means the equations are both equal to each other

5x - 6 = -4x + 3

Solve for x how you would traditionally do it with any other one-variable equation

9x = 9

x = 1

Plug the now known x value into either equation and you will get your y value.

5(1) - 6 = -1

-4(1) + 3 = -1
