Use elimination
x - 3y = -5
x + 3y = 1
Subtract both sides
-6y = -6, y = 1
x - 3(1)= -5
x - 3 = -5, x = -2
Final answer: x = -2, y = 1

Answer:

I got you fam

Explanation:

First One:

x -3y = -5

x = -5 + 3y

Or

x -3y = -5

-3y = -5 -x

y = 5/3 + x/3

Second one:

x +3y = 1

x = 1 - 3y

Or

x + 3y = 1

3y = 1 -x

y = 1/3 - x/3
