Answer: \((x, y) = (3, -3)\)

Ordered pairs for \(x + y = 0\):

\(x\)\(0\)\(1\)\(3\)
\(y\)\(0\)\(-1\)\(-3\)
\((x, y)\)\((0, 0)\)\((1, -1)\)\((3, -3)\)

Ordered pairs for \(2x - y = 9\):

\(x\)\(0\)\(4\)\(3\)
\(y\)\(-9\)\(-1\)\(-3\)
\((x, y)\)\((0, -9)\)\((4, -1)\)\((3, -3)\)

Plot both sets of points on the same graph paper (scale: 1 cm = 1 unit on both axes) and join each set to get two straight lines. The lines intersect at \((3, -3)\).

Check: \(1(3) + 1(-3) = 0\) and \(2(3) + (-1)(-3) = 9\) – both true.
