Answer:

b = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

solve the second equation for 'y':

-3x + 1/2y = -3

add 3x to each side to get:

1/2y = 3x - 3

multiply all terms by 2 to eliminate the denominator to get:

y = 6x - 6

now compare '6x-6' with '6x-b'

you want both expressions to be equal because then there are an infinite number of solutions:

b = 6
