To solve this system of equations, we first notice that the first equation can be rewritten as a quadratic equation in terms of 3^x:
Let's denote 3^x as a, then the equation becomes:
12a^2 - 35a + 18 = 0
We can factor this quadratic equation to:
(4a - 3)(3a - 6) = 0
This gives us the solutions a = 3/4 or a = 2.
Since a = 3^x, we get two possible values for x:
3^x = 3/4 --> x = log(3/4) / log(3) = -0.185
3^x = 2 --> x = log(2) / log(3) = 0.630
Now, let's use the second equation to solve for y:
(3^x)^y = 1/9
Using the value x = 0.630:
(3^0.630)^y = 1/9
1.780^y = 0.111
Therefore, we have the solution:
x = -0.185 or x = 0.630y = -0.652
