x = 9 t + 2

x - 2 = 9 t

( x - 2 ) / 9 = t

t = ( x - 2 ) / 9

y = – 6 t + 9

y = - 6 * ( x - 2 ) / 9 + 9

y = - 3 * 2 * ( x - 2 ) / ( 3 * 3 ) + 9

y = - ( 2 / 3 ) ( x - 2 ) + 9
x = 9t+2 --> t = (x-2)/9
y = -6t+9 --> t = (9-y)/6

then : (x-2)/9 = (9-y)/6

6x-12 = 81-9y
9y = -6x + 93
y = (-2/3)x + 31/3

looks like B)
y = - ( 2 / 3 ) ( x - 2 ) + 9

y = - ( 2 / 3 ) x - ( 2 / 3 ) * ( - 2 ) + 9

y = - ( 2 / 3 ) x + 4 / 3 + 9

y = - ( 2 / 3 ) x + 4 / 3 + 27 / 3

y = - ( 2 / 3 ) x + 31 / 3

Answer D
You are right Bosnian, it is D
Time to clean my glasses, lol
It's B, y=-3/2x+3/31
wait nvm it's D, I'd delete my previous post but dont know how
