3x + 2 = y; y = -1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You plug in -1 for y and solve for x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what does that mean :\??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So you have 3x + 2 = -1 Can you solve it from there?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

noo

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Subtract 2 from both sides and then divide by 3 to get x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

did you solve it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so -3??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No, when you subtract 2 from both sides what you have is 3x = -3, can you take it from here?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its -1 got it thankss!!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

There you go :)
