We can solve by using the substitution method y=-5/3x+3 y=1/3x-3 They are equal to each other because they are both equal to y -5/3x+3=1/3x-3 Subtract both sides by 1/3 and subtract 3 from both sides
-5/3x-1/3x=-3-3 -2x=-6
Divide both sides by -2 x=3
Plug in x into one of the equation to solve for y y=1/3(3)-3 y=1-3 y=-2
