In this system

x+3y=9

4x-2y=-6

it'll be easiest to start by solving the first equation for x.

The result of doing so is x=​9-3y.

Fill in the blanks to plug that expression in and solve for y:

4(​ (a)   )-2​ (b)   =-6

36-​ (c)   y-2y=​ (d)  

36-​ (e)   =-6

• 9-3y

• y

• 12

• -6

• 14y

• x

• 10y

• x+3y

• 24y
