Clare and Noah play a game in which they earn the same number of points for each goal and lose the same number of points for each penalty.
Clare makes 6 goals and 3 penalties, ending the game with 6 points.
Noah earns 8 goals and 9 penalties and ends the game with \(\text-22\) points.
Write a system of equations that describes Clare's and Noah's outcomes. Use \(x\) to represent the number of points for a goal and \(y\) to represent the number of points for a penalty.
