PLEASE HELP ME Solve the given system, using the substitution method. y = 4x – 6 8x – 2y = 14 (14, 12) (12, 14) There are an infinite number of solutions. There is no solution.

So do you know how to solve it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i got no solution

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

It says substitution so we plug in y=4x-6 into 8x – 2y = 14 So we get 8x-2(4x-6)=14 8x-8x+12=14 12\(\ \neq\)14 So yes you are correct. It is no solution.
