Answer:

x=13

y= -9

(13, -9)

Explanation:

If we are solving using the substitution method, we can take the first equation and set it to y so y=4-x.

Then, we can take that equation and plug it into the bottom one so

3x+4(4-x)=3

Simplify:

3x+16-4x=3

-x=-13

x=13

We can then plug 13 into any of the two given equations (I am just going to plug it into the top one)

So, 13+y=4 which y= -9
