solve the system of linear equations by substitution

6x-9=y -----> equation A

y=-3x​ ------> equation B

substitute equation A in equation B

6x-9=-3x

solve for x

6x+3x=9

9x=9

x=1

Find the value of y

substitute the value of x in equation A or equation B (is the same result)

y=-3(1)=-3

the answer is

the solution is the ordered pair (1,-3)
