Answer:

The other equation could be: 6y = 4x - 18

Explanation:

System with infinite number of solutions:

A linear system has an infinite number of solutions when one equation is a multiple of another.

One of the equations of the system is 3y = 2x - 9. Which could be the other equation?

A multiple of 3y = 2x - 9

Multiplying by 2, the other equation could be: 6y = 4x - 18
