sure what is is

anonymous · Answer

what is the resulting equation when the expression for y in the second equation is substituted into the first equation?
3x+y=1
y=6-4x
A. -x+6=1
B. x+6=1
C. 7x+6=1

whpalmer4 · Answer

The second equation is $y = 6-4x$. Wherever you see $y$ in $3x+y=1$, you replace it with $(6-4x)$.  What is the result?

anonymous · Answer

is it 7x+6=1?

whpalmer4 · Answer

No.  

$$3x+y=1$$Replace $y$ with $(6-4x)$:
$$3x + (6-4x) = 1$$$$3x+6 - 4x = 1$$Collect like terms and you get...
