Solve for one of the variables in the first equation (in this case, I will solve for X):
X = Y + 3
Then use that value of X in the second equation to solve for Y:
X + 3Y = 9
(Y + 3) + 3Y = 9
4Y + 3 = 9
4Y = 6
Y = 1.5
Use the value of Y we just found in the X equation we created:
X = Y + 3
X = 1.5 + 3
X = 4.5
Therefore X = 4.5 or 9/2 and Y = 1.5 or 3/2.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Width of the room in the drawing = x
1 : 3 :: x : 18
Product of means = Product of extremes
3 * x = 18 *1
x = 18 ÷ 3
x = 6
Width of the room in the drawing = 6 inches
