Step-by-step explanation:
You're asking why

let's transpose the first equation for y
-2x-6y=18
-6y=18+2x
6y=-18-2x
y=-18/6-2x/6
y=-3-⅓x as required
Use the 2 dots on the line located at (0,1) and (-3,0).
The slope is the change in Y over the change in X:
Change in Y = 0-1 = -1
Change in X = -3 - 0 = -3
Slope = -1 / -3 = 1/3
They intercept in this case is Y1 which = 1.
The equation is y = 1/3x + 1
First, distribute 2 to the (x+3) to get:
21 = 2x+6
subtract 6 from both sides to get:
15 = 2x
Finally, we divide both sides by 2 to simplify x to:
x = 7.5 (OR) x =
