    -x+y=-3, 3x+2y=9

    1. multiply the first row by the second

    -2x+2y=-6, 3x+2y=9

    2. subtract the second row from the first row

    -5x=-15

    3. sole for x in the above equation

    x=-15/-5

    x=15/5

    x=3

    4. substitue x=3 into - 2x+2y=-6

    -2*3+2y=-6

    5. solve for y in the above equation

    -6+2y=-6

    2y-6=-6

    2y=0

    y=0

    6 therefore,

    x=3 and y=0

    Have a nice day : D
