Question

5x + 10y = 18
x = y - 6
Which of the following equations is the result of substituting y - 6 in for x in the first equation?

Answer 1

Instead of an 'x', put in 'y-6' into the first equation. Use brackets to stay organized.
5(y-6) + 10y = 18
Then you can expand it.

Answer 2

just distribute the 5 through the parenthesis in jam's response to get the result

Answer 3

a) 5x + 10y - 6 = 18

b) 5y - 6 + 10y = 18

c) 5y - 30 + 10y = 18

Answer 4

5(y - 6) + 10y = 18...
this is the same as :
5 * y - 5 * 6 + 10y = 18
can you do it now ?

Answer 5

ok...I am feeling generous...answer is 5y - 30 + 10y = 18

Answer 6
