Using the substitution method 8x-3y=8 7x+4y+60 I get stuck on one of the last steps

OpenStudy (usukidoll):

multiply the first equation by 4 and multiply the second equation by 3.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I get 7(8 +3y/8) +4y = 60 but I'm not sure if I need to get rid of the fraction or what

OpenStudy (usukidoll):

no no no non on ononoo

OpenStudy (usukidoll):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

isn't that the elimination method?

OpenStudy (usukidoll):

yeah...but you're subsituting in the end.
