Use the elimination method for systems of equations.

Your answer should be x = 3

Plug the x value into one of the equations and you should get y = 7/3

The solution is (3, 7/3)

Let’s start with 2x-3y=-1–>y=2/3x+1/3 then substitute that in for y in the second equation: 3x+4(2/3x+1/3) then solve for x; once x has been found substitute the value of x into either of the equations and evaluate it to find y
