Correct. In this sentence, the author makes the claim that melancholy can make one’s imagination “torpid” (sluggish), and that lack of appropriate occasions can prevent the mind from coming up with “sallies and excursions” (clever remarks).

Answer:
x= -1
Explain:
Since we know y=9, we can put 9 in for y in the other equation. so we then have 9= -3x+6. We do reverse order of operations and subtract 6 from both sides first and we have 3= -3x. We divide both sides by -3 to get x alone and our final answer is -1=x
