C) (2, -9) is a solution to the equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find if both or one point is the solution to the equation, substitute the x and y-values of both points into the equation to find which one makes a true and correct statement (the answer).

For (2, -9):

$\sf5x - \frac{y}{3} = 13\\\\5(2) - \frac{-9}{3} = 13\\\\10-(-3)=13\\\\10+3=13\\\\ \boxed{13=13}\\\\\ \textsf{This is a true statement}\\\textsf{This means that (2, -9) is a solution to 5x - y/3 = 13}$

For (3, -6);

$\sf5x - \frac{y}{3} = 13\\\\5(3) - \frac{-6}{3} = 13\\\\15-(-2)=13\\\\15+2=13\\\\ \boxed{17=13}\\\\\ \textsf{This is not a true statement}\\\textsf{This means that (3, -6) is not a solutions to 5x - y/3 = 13}$
