OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

Nnesha (nnesha):

i'm pretty sure there should be x in second equation

OpenStudy (holly00d1248):

y=6 so now plug it in

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no...there isn't...does this mean that its many solutions or no solution? @Nnesha

OpenStudy (holly00d1248):

2X+2(6)=-4

OpenStudy (holly00d1248):

so 2X+12=-4

Nnesha (nnesha):

okay then just do that jdoew saidd

OpenStudy (holly00d1248):

subtract 12 from both sides

OpenStudy (holly00d1248):

and youll get 2X=-16

OpenStudy (anonymous):
