Since the first equation is already solved for y we can use substitution replacing y with 4x+6
\n" ); document.write( "2(4x+6)=-8x-8
\n" ); document.write( "Distribute the 2
\n" ); document.write( "8x+12=-8x-8
\n" ); document.write( "Add 8x to both sides
\n" ); document.write( "16x+12=-8
\n" ); document.write( "subtract 12 from both sides
\n" ); document.write( "16x=-20
\n" ); document.write( "divide both sides by 16
\n" ); document.write( "x=-20/16
\n" ); document.write( "Simplify the fraction
\n" ); document.write( "x=-5/4
\n" ); document.write( "Sub it -5/4 for x
\n" ); document.write( "y=4*(-5/4)+6
\n" ); document.write( "y=1\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
