Answer:

x=4

y=10

Explanation:

3x +3y = 27

x - 3y = -11 (add these up so 3y will be eliminated and you'll have x only)

4x = 16

now let's eliminate x (you can put 4 instead of x though)

3x + 3y = 27

-3/ x -3y= -11 (multiple the the 2nd equation with -3 to eliminate x )

3x + 3y =27

-3x + 3y =33

6y = 60
