uh, i'm pretty sure i'm supposed to use substitution for this. i dunno how to do it though

chaosguardian14 · Answer

umm... so im guessing it'll be just two numbers so the substitution for the variables must be the same ima try i few numbers but tell me what u think and i will try them also

kidthatbro8 · Answer

i don't know. i thought there was a special way to solve it?

chaosguardian14 · Answer
