To find the values of x and y that satisfy the system of equations, we need to substitute x = 3 and y = 9 into both equations and see if they hold true.
Let's say the two equations are:
1) 2x + y = 15
2) x - 3y = -15
Substitute x = 3 and y = 9 into equation 1:
2(3) + 9 = 15
6 + 9 = 15
15 = 15
Substitute x = 3 and y = 9 into equation 2:
3 - 3(9) = -15
3 - 27 = -15
-24 = -15
Since both equations hold true when x = 3 and y = 9, the solution to the system of equations is x = 3 and y = 9.
