Answer:

sln

3x-y=-3

3x-y=-3(make subject x)

3x=-3+y(divided by 3 both sides)

x=(-3+y) /3,x=-1+y /3

find y

3x-y=-3

-y=-3-3x(put the value of x)

-y=-3-3(-1+y/3)

-y=-6(-1+y/3)

-y=6+y/3

-y-y/3 =-3

-4y/3=-3(X by 3 both sides)

--4y=-6(divided by - 4 both sides)

y=1.5

find x

3x-y= -3 (put the value of y)

3x-1.5= -3

3x=-3+1.5

3x=-1.5(divided by 3 both sides)

x=-0. 5
