See explanation.

Explanation:

From the second equation you can calculate variable yy

y=2xy=2x

If you substitute 2x2x for yy in the first equation you get an equation with one variable xx:

-3x^2+(2x)^2=93x2+(2x)2=9

-3x^2+4x^2=93x2+4x2=9

x^2=9x2=9

x=-3vvx=3x=3x=3

Now we can put the calculates values to find the corresponding values of yy:

Answer: The system has 2 solutions:

{(x=-3),(y=-6):}

or

{(x=3),(y=6):}
