Answer:

(1, - 2 )

Explanation:

Given the equations

3x - 4y = 11 → (1)

y + 3x = 1 ( subtract 3x from both sides )

y = 1 - 3x → (2)

Substitute y = 1 - 3x into (1)

3x - 4(1 - 3x) = 11 ( distribute and simplify left side )

3x - 4 + 12x = 11

15x - 4 = 11 ( add 4 to both sides )

15x = 15 ( divide both sides by 15 )

x = 1

Substitute x = 1 into (2) for corresponding value of y

y = 1 - 3(1) = 1 - 3 = - 2

solution is (1, - 2 )
