    substitution property.

    y = x - 3

    y = -2x - 3

    the first equation tells you y is x - 3 so, plug in x - 3 for y in the second equation.

    x - 3 = -2x - 3

    now, solve:

    x - 3 = -2x - 3

    3x = 0

    x = 0

    plug in to either of the equations find y:

    y = x - 3

    y = 0 - 3

    y = -3

    now try the 2nd question on your own. exact same concept. :]

    in case you have a set S = {s1, s2, s3}, then SxS is the set of ordered pairs drawn from S: this is, {(s1, s1), (s1, s2), (s1, s3), (s2, s1), (s2, s2), (s2, s3), (s3, s1), (s3, s2), (s3, s3)}. a similar shape applies for instruments of diverse sizes (cardinalities). The questions are then inquiring for the subset of the bypass-product for which the given relation is genuine.
