Answer 2

the way the equations are written substitution is the easiest method

replace x in the 1st equation with 3y - 2, which comes from the 2nd equation

Answer 3

then you have to collect like terms and solve for y.

does that make sense?

Answer 4

umm kinda but not really

Answer 5

there 4 ways to do this kinda problem
elimination
substitution for this method you have to solve one of equation for one variable and substitute that into 2nd equation
graphing
and matrices
the equation you have there is 2nd equation already solved for one variable which is x so replace x which is in first equation by x values
