Since the board is in inches, she can lay the board on the side of the rug. after she finds how many inches the rug is, Lyza can convert the inches into feet by dividing the amount of inches by 12.

Solve the system of equations:
$x+y=9 \\
\underline{x-y=3} \\
x+x=9+3 \\
2x=12 \ \ \ |\div 2 \\
x=6 \\ \\
x+y=9 \\
6+y=9 \ \ \ |-6 \\
y=3$
