If you were to use the substitution method to solve the following system, choose the new equation after the expression equivalent to y from the first equation is substituted into the second equation.
12x - y = -4
4x - 3y = -6
4x - 3(-12x - 4) = -6
4x - 3(12x + 4) = -6
4(12x + 4) - 3y = -6
4(-12x - 4) - 3y = -6

these are these multiple choice answers
4x - 3(-12x - 4) = -6
4x - 3(12x + 4) = -6
4(12x + 4) - 3y = -6
4(-12x - 4) - 3y = -6

can you isolate y from 12x - y = -4
?
you can start by adding 'y' on both sides

12x-y = -4
12x -y+y = -4+y

hartnn (hartnn):
12x = -4+y
now add 4 on both sides similarly

4 + 12x = -4 + y + 4

hartnn (hartnn):
yes!
so
y = 12x+4
right?

hartnn (hartnn):
yes, its easy
then plug this in 2nd equation
4x-3y =-6
4x - 3(12x + 4) = -6
