You can put this solution on YOUR website!
1.x-y=3
2.3x-2y=3
Let's use equation 1 to solve for x, then substitute into equation 2.
1.x-y=3
x=y%2B3
Substitute into 2.
2.3x-2y=3
3%28y%2B3%29-2y=3
3y%2B9-2y=3
y%2B9=3
y=3-9
y=-6
Back substitute into your derived equation to solve for x.
x=y%2B3
x=-6%2B3
x=-3
Since you obtained a unique solution, the system is independent.
