It's a linear function. We need only two points to draw a graph.
We choose any values of x and calculate the value of y.
for x= 0 → y = 3(0) - 1 = 0 - 1 = -1 → (0, -1)
for x = 2 → y = 3(2) - 1 = 6 - 1 = 5 → (2, 5)
for x = 0 → y = 3(0) - 1/3 = 0 - 1/3 = -1/3 → (0, -1/3)
for x = 2 → y = 3(2) - 1/3 = 6 - 1/3 = 5 2/3 → (2, 5 2/3)
When you solve a proportion, your first step should be to cross-multiply.
= 
When you cross-multiply, you should get this equation:
(2x)(3) = (x + 3)(5)
Now, solve it using algebra.
(2x)(3) = (x + 3)(5) Multiply
6x = 5x + 15 Subtract 5x from both sides
x = 15
The value of x is 15.
