Substitute the 1st equation in the 2nd, we get:
3x + 2(-3 + 2x) = 2
3x -6 +4x = 2
7x = 8
x = 8/7
Replace x = 8/7 in equation 1,
y = -3 + 2(8/7) = -3 +16/7 = -5/7

A line parallel to your equation has the same slope, so it should be in the form:
y = (-3/2)x + b
To figure what "b" has to be, plug in the point (4,0) and solve:
0 = (-3/2)*4 + b
0 = -6 + b
6 = b
So the equation of the line is:
y = (-3/2)x + 6
Answer:
w = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
–9 = –3(w − 5)
-3(w - 5) = -9
w - 5 = 3
w = 5 + 3
w = 8
Time taken by Jami to mow 1/6 acres is 8 minutes=8/60=2/15 hours.
Rate at which Jami is mowing will be:
rate=(number of acres)/(time)=(1/6)/(2/15)
=1/6÷2/15
=1/6×15/2
=5/4 acres/hour
=1.25 acres/hour
From above calculations we conclude that Jami cannot mow 1.5 acres in 1 hour
