Model the price c of an orange as a linear function of the percentage p of the crop that was destroyed. (Hint: When 0% of the crop was destroyed, the price was $0.50.)

Question 993698: Good morning or afternoon whichever time zone you are in. I have a question about a linear equation I would like to ask. The problem is:
x=7-4y
6x-5y=-45
My question is, with the equation x=7-4y, do I add 4y to both sides of the equation so it looks like x+4y=7, before continuing to solve the rest of the problem?
