Let us solve this system of equations by using the elimination method. Adding the 2 equations, we get

9x + 5y - 9x + 4y = -33 + 6

9y = -27

y = -3

Substituting this value of y in the first equation, we get

-9x + 4(-3) = 6

-9x - 12 = 6

9x + 12 = -6

9x = -18

x = -2

Therefore, x = -2, and y = -3. Hope this helps! If you have any questions, feel free to ask.
