<em>Hey there!</em>

Well to find the solution the the given system,
3y - 2x = -9
y = -2x + 5
So to find x lets plug in -2x + 5 for y in 3y - 2x = -9.
3(-2x + 5) - 2x = -9
Distribute
-6x + 15 - 2x = -9
-8x + 15 = -9
-15 to both sides
-8x = -24
Divide -8 to both sides
<u>x = 3</u>
<u />
Now that we have x which is 3, we can plug in 3 for x in y = -2x + 5.
y = -2(3) + 5
y = -6 + 5
<u>y = -1</u>
<u><em /></u>
So the solution is (3,-1).

You want to isolate the x-term from the constant term, so you can subtract x/3 and add 10. This gives you
... 4/9x -10 -x/3 +10 > x/3 -12 -x/3 +10
... 1/9x > -2 . . . . . . collect terms
Now, you can multiply by 9 to see the condition on x.
... 9(1/9x) > -2(9)
... x > -18
On the x-y plane, the graph of this will be a dashed line at x=-18, and the half-plane to the right of that line will be shaded.
On a number line, there will be an open circle at x=-18, and the number line to the right of that circle will be marked (bold, colored, shaded, whatever).
