Answer:

(6,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + y = 15

x - y = 3

I will use elimination to solve the system.  Add these equations together to eliminate y.

2x + y = 15

x - y = 3

-------------------

3x    = 18

Divide by 3

3x/3 = 18/3

x =6

Now we need to find y

x-y =3

6-y =3

Subtract 6 from each side

6-6-y=3-6

-y=-3

Multiply by -1

y=3
