You can solve this by using the elimination method. 

Start by multiplying the first equation by -3:
[tex]-3(4x+3y=54) [/tex]

Now we have: 
[tex]-12x-9y=-162 [/tex] 
[tex]3x+9y=108 [/tex]

Add these equations to eliminate y:[tex]-9x=-54 [/tex]

Divide both sides by -9 to get:
x=6

Plug x=6 into 2nd equation:
[tex]3(6)+9y=108 [/tex]
[tex]18+9y=108[/tex]
[tex]18-18+9y=108-18[/tex]
[tex]9y=90[/tex]
y=10 

Final answer:
