Solution Steps

Step 1: Add the two equations

Adding the two equations eliminates the y variable:

2x - y = -3 4x + y = -3

6x + 0 = -6

Step 2: Solve for x

Divide both sides by 6:

6x = -6 x = -6/6 x = -1

Step 3: Substitute x back into one of the original equations to solve for y

Using the first equation:

2x - y = -3 2(-1) - y = -3 -2 - y = -3 -y = -3 + 2 -y = -1 y = 1

Final Answer

\\( \boxed{x = -1, y = 1} \\)
