You can put this solution on YOUR website!
-3x-2y = 6 .............1
3x-y = 12 .............2
equation1
when x= 0, y=-3(0,-3)
when y = 0,x=-2(-2,0)
Equation 2
when x= 0,y=-12 (0,-12)
when y =0,x=4(4,0)
Plot these points and draw the lines.
The point of intersection is the solution of the system.

The solution is (2,-6)
