2x + y = 2
x − y = −6
Choose one answer.
A. −6 − x

For the following system, if you isolated y in the second equation to use the Substitution Method, what expression would you substitute into the first equation?

2x + y = 2
  x − y = −6
Choose one answer.
	A. −6 − x 	
	B. −6 + x 	
	C. 6 − x 	
	D. 6 + x

In the second equation, first add y+6 to both sides. Then you will get y value in terms of x.

Then substitute this y value in 1st equation to get your x

anonymous · Answer

x - y = -6
x = -6 + y
x+6 = y
D 6 + x

@suzukirider1400 actually, you don't need to do the second step.  First step will suffice for the given question . (in the steps I mentioned)
