First, make sure that all the variables are in one side. The first equation is gonna be x-y=3

Second, we are going to eliminate the y because it is much easier, but you can also eliminate the x

We have to add both equation because the y in the first equation is negative and in the second equation it’s positive.

We are left with 3x=9

Therefore, x=3

Last, substitute x= 3 in one of the equations

Y=6

P.O.I is (3,6)
