    The given system of equation is:

    2x + y = 3 ⇒ y=3-2x Subtract 2x from each side.

    Next step is to plug in 3-2x form y into the second equation. So,

    6x = 9 - 3y

    6x=9-3 (3-2x)

    6x=9-9+6x By distributing property.

    6x=6x

    6x-6x=6x-6x Subtract 6x from each sides.

    0=0

    From the above result notice that x has vanish and we are left with 0=0 which is correct.

    Hence, the given system has infinite number of solutions.
