3x + y = 1
6x + 2y = −9

0

2

There is no x value as there is no solution to this system

x can be any value as there are infinitely many solutions to this system

Multiply the top equation by -2.
The y's will cancel out leaving you with the x's and constants.
Add the x's and then add the constants.
Divide by the coefficient of x.
