Can someone please show me the steps to this question? Please Solve the system of equations: x = 3y – 6 2x – 4y = 8

OpenStudy (pina_colada123):

do u want to find what X & Y are

OpenStudy (abbycross167):

okay how do I do that?

OpenStudy (pina_colada123):

okay for the first one (x = 3y – 6) u want to subtract X from both sides

OpenStudy (pina_colada123):

so now u have 3y=-X+6

OpenStudy (pina_colada123):

Divide 3 to both sides of the equation

OpenStudy (abbycross167):

wait we don't have a value for x.

OpenStudy (pina_colada123):

thats what were finding since this is a slope formula
