    Answer: x = 7 y = - 2

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Assuming you meant x + 3y = 1 and - 3x - 3y = - 15.

    Take the first eq and solve it to x = 1 - 3y. Then take that into the 2nd eq.

    -3 (1 - 3y) - 3y = - 15

    -3 + 9y - 3y = - 15

    -3 + 6y = - 15

    6y = - 12

    y = - 2

    Take that into first eq

    X + 3 (-2) = 1

    X + - 6 = 1

    X = 7

    (7, - 2) is the answer

    x = 8

    Step-by-step explanation:

    x + 3y + 1 - 3x - 3y = - 15 (+3y will eliminate - 3y)

    -2x + 1 = - 15

    -2x = - 16

    x = 8
