Please, I can really use some help. I have no idea how to solve this.

Given the system of linear equations
y = -5
y = 3x - 2

Part A: Graph the system of linear equations.
Part B: Use the graph created in Part A to determine the solution to the system.
Part C: Algebraically verify the solution from Part B.

A) you would first make the graph, and then you would put a dot on -5 on the y axis and draw the line horizontal.
and then for the y=3x-2 you would put a dot on -2 on the y axis, and the use 3/1 as your slope, which means rise 3 and then go left 1
This should help you figure out B and C, hope I helped!!
