Let's solve this by substitution.  Note that y is defined:  y = 2x - 2.  Subst. 2x - 2 for y in the other equation:  -6x + 3(2x - 2) = 18.

Then -6x + 6x - 6 = 18.  Unfortunately, -6 does not equal 18, so there is no solution.  The graphs of these two lines are parallel.
-6x + 3(2x-2)= 18

-6x + 6x - 6 = 18

-6 ¥ 18
no solution
