Answer:

Value of y is -11, -5 and 4 respectively.

Explanation:

We have the equation,


-3x + y = -2 i.e.
y=-2+3x.

Substituting the values given of 'x', we get,

For x= -3,
y=-2+3* (-3) i.e.
y=-2-9 i.e. y= -11

For x= -1,
y=-2+3* (-1) i.e.
y=-2-3 i.e. y= -5

For x= 2,
y=-2+3* 2 i.e.
y=-2+6 i.e. y= 4

Thus, the value of y is -11, -5 and 4 respectively.
