x=1/2,y=1/3

Explanation:

Taking the logarthm on both sides (the first equation) we get
log(2)(log(2)+log(x))=log(3)(log(3)+log(y))

Doing the same with the second equation:

log(y)=log(x)*log(3)/log(2)
Substituting

a=log(x)

we get

log(x)(log^2(2)-log^2(3))/log(2)=-(log^2(2)-log^2(3))

so a=-log(2)

log(x)=log(2^(-1))

x=1/2

In the first equation we get

1=3y

y=1/3
