A. You would first plot the y intercept. The first equation would be (0,-8) and the second equation is (0,-11). Then you would plot the slope. For the first equation, from (0,-8), you would move up 3 plots and right 1 plot. For the second equation, from (0,-11), you would move up 9 plots and right 1 plot.
B. The solution to the pair of inequalities is (1/2, -13/2). That is the intersection and point of the two lines. You would need to graph the two lines (see part A answer) and then find the intersection.
Ratios are fractions. Equivalent means equal, if you change one set of numbers, you have to change the second set of numbers so then that Ratio or Equivalent fraction stays equal on both sides.
