Elementary Ways to Solve System of Exponential Equation Is there any elementary way (or using Lambert-W maybe) to solve this system of the exponential equation:
$$ \begin{cases}
3^{x+y}+2^{y-1}=23, \\
3^{2x-1}+2^{y+1}=43.
\end{cases} $$
I have tried to eliminate the exponent of 2 but it gets me
$$ 12 \cdot 3^{x + y} + 3^{2x} = 405 $$
which is more complicated.
I have also tried to substitute $ 3^x = u $ and $ 2^y = v $ but there is still $ 3^y $.
Any advice is welcome (it's okay to use non-elementary method). Thanks :)

Hint:
$$(3^x)^2+(12\cdot3^y)3^x-405=0$$
The discriminant is $$(12\cdot3^y)^2+4\cdot405=16\cdot3^{2y+2}+3^4\cdot20=4\cdot3^2(4\cdot9^y+45)$$
For rational $3^x,$  we need $$(2\cdot3^y)^2+45$$ to be perfect square $=d^2, d\ge0$(say)
$$\implies45=d^2-(2\cdot3^y)^2=(d+2\cdot3^y)(d-2\cdot3^y)\le(d+2\cdot3^y)^2$$
$$\implies d+2\cdot3^y\ge\sqrt{45}>6$$
Again, $d+2\cdot3^y$ must divide $45,$ hence can be one of $$\{9,15,45\}$$
From here we can find $3^y$ and $d$ and hence $3^x$
