 x + y =  18 → 3x + 3y = 54
x - 3y = 22 →    x - 3y = 22
                                4x = 76
                                 4      4
                                  x = 19
                            x + y = 18
                           19 + y = 18
                         - 19       - 19
                                   y = -1
                             (x, y) = (19, -1)
