1. **State the problem:** Solve the system of equations:
$$9x + 11y = -9$$
$$3x + 4y = -3$$
2. **Use the substitution or elimination method.** Here, we use elimination for clarity.
3. Multiply the second equation by 3 to align coefficients of $x$:
$$3(3x + 4y) = 3(-3) \Rightarrow 9x + 12y = -9$$
4. Now subtract the first equation from this new equation:
$$\cancel{9x} + 12y - (\cancel{9x} + 11y) = -9 - (-9)$$
$$12y - 11y = 0$$
$$y = 0$$
5. Substitute $y=0$ into the second original equation:
$$3x + 4(0) = -3$$
$$3x = -3$$
$$x = \frac{-3}{3} = -1$$
6. **Final solution:**
$$(x, y) = (-1, 0)$$
Note: The provided solution $(\frac{1}{3}, -1)$ does not satisfy both equations.
---
**Summary:** The system solution is $$(x, y) = (-1, 0)$$.
