What is the solution to the following system of equations? 2x - y = -3 and 3x + 4y = 15

  1. x=6, y=3

  2. x=-4, y=9

  3. x=-3, y=2

  4. x=-2, y=7

The correct answer is: x=-3, y=2

The solution to a system of equations is the values for x and y that make both equations true when substituted in. In this case, option A has the correct value for y but not for x, and option D has the correct value for x but not for y. Option B does not have the correct values for either x or y. Therefore, option C is the correct solution as it makes both equations true when substituted in.
