  see below

Step-by-step explanation:

When doing this by hand, it can work well to start at the y-intercept (0, -2) and use the slope value to find additional points on the line. The slope of 5 indicates another point will be 5 units up for each 1 unit right from (0, -2). So, another point will be (1, 3).

Draw the line through the points you found.

A graphing calculator does this easily.

x = -3

y = -18

step-by-step explanation:

to solve by substitution, substitute one variable and solve for the other. then substitute again to find the remaining variable.

x-1/3(3x-9) = -3 since y=3x-9 substittute y.

x-1/3(3x-9)=-3

x + x +3 = -3

2x+3=-3

2x+3-3= -3-3

2x=-6

x=-3

substitute again into y=3x-9

y=3(-3)-9

y=-9-9

y=-18
