1) 3x - 2y = -16 Subtract 3x from both sides
-2y = -3x - 16 Divide both sides by -2
y = [tex] \frac{3}{2} [/tex]x + 8
2) 9x - 7y = -7 Subtact 9x from both sides
-7y = -8x - 7 Divide both sides by -7
y = [tex] \frac{8}{7} [/tex] + 1
3) x - 3y = 6 Subtract x from both sides
-3y = -x + 6 Divide both sides by -3
y = [tex] \frac{1}{3} [/tex] - 2
