6x-4(-5x+23)=-14

Question

solving systems using substitution. (both not solved for y)

Answer 1

Do you need to solve for x?

 

6x - 4(-5x + 23) = -14

6x + 20x - 92 = -14

 

26x = 78

x = 78/26 = 3.

 

If you already had an expression for y in terms of x, you can plug in x=3 and find y.

 

Good luck.
