B=blue
g=green
r=red
2 times as many blue as green
b=2g
3 times as many red as blue
r=3b
subsitute 2g for b
r=3(2g)=6g
r=6g

r+g+b=765
so we subsitute
r=6g
g=g
b=2g

6g+g+2g=765
add like terms
9g=765
divide both sides by 9
g=85
subsitute
b=2b
b=2(85)
b=170

170 blue

B- -3

If x is two according to the coordinate points, that means the equation is now -8+3y=-17

Add 8 to each side- 3y=-9

And divide -9 by 3

This gets you y=-3
