we are given


-(1)/(3) x+y=-1


y=4+(1)/(3)x

firstly , we can draw graph

and then we can find intersection point

we can see that

both lines are parallel

they will never meet

so,

no solution ........Answer

To solve the system of equations by graphing
-(1)/(3)x+y=-1,\:y=4+(1)/(3)x

Consider the first equation
-(1)/(3)x+y=-1


y=-1+(1)/(3)x

Using Desmos Graphing Calculator, graph the two equations.

The two lines are parallel.

There is no solution.
