no solution's . convert the first equation to x=-y-9, and plug it into the other equation. you get 3y+27-37=3, which is incorrect

Answer: B. No solution.

Explanation:

First, we will set one of the equations equal to a single variable by subtracting y from both sides.

x + y = -9 ➜ x = -y - 9

Next, we will substitute this into the second equation and see if we can solve it. As you can see, the y-variable canceled itself out. This means there are no solutions. The lines are parallel to each other, see attached.

-3x - 3y = 3

-3(-y - 9) - 3y = 3

3y - 27 - 3y = 3

-27 = 3
