There's no need for a system of linear equations if you were to solve a real life problem like this. In calculus, they don't give a rat about HOW you get your answer to an easy algebra 1 equation, as long as you used one of the correct methods and got the right answer.
Best of luck my friend. :)

0 because the number in the middle is the midpoint.
Divide by the coefficient of y.
y = (45/9)x
y = 5x
The constant of proportionality is 5.
The slope of the line (m) = 3/1 = 3
and the y intercept is at (0,3) that is y = 3 so b = 3
using the slope intercept form y = mx + b
m = 3 and b = 3
so answer is y = 3x + 3
