    A is wrong because the Y-Intercept: = - 13/3

    B is correct because y=2/3x-5

    c is correct because 6y=4x-30

    and lastly D is correct because. (y+3) = 2/3 (x-3)

    Answer choice A is incorrect as it is missing the variable 'x' in it.

    Let's test answer choice B.

    y = mx + b

    m is the slope

    b is the y-intercept

    m = 2/3

    b = - 5

    y = (2/3) x - 5

    B is one of the answers.

    Let's test answer choice C.

    6y = 4x - 30

    y = (4/6) x - 30/6

    y = (2/3) x - 5

    Answer choice C is also correct.

    Let's test answer choice D now.

    y = (2/3) x - 5

    Plug in (3,-3)

    -3 = (2/3) (3) - 5

    -3 = 2 - 5

    -3 = - 3

    This is correct, so therefore D is also one of the answers.

    Your answer is B, C and D.
