Answer:

a. (6,-2)

Explanation:

combine 1/3 and x.

y = -2

y = x/3 - 4

y = -2

Then create a graph to locate the intersection of the equations. The intersection of the system of equations is the solution.

(6,-2)

A, y is already -2 lol, just plug it into the second equation, -2 = 1/3x - 4, -2 + 4 = 1/3x - 4 + 4, 2 = 1/3, 2/1/3 = 6, 6, -2, it’s a
