Full solution

Q. Solve using substitution.\newlinex=8x = 8\newline3x+5y=63x + 5y = -6\newline(_____, _____)
  1. Substitute xx value: Substitute the value of xx into the equation.\newlineWe are given x=8x = 8, so we substitute 88 for xx in the equation 3x+5y=63x + 5y = -6.\newline3(8)+5y=63(8) + 5y = -6
  2. Perform multiplication: Perform the multiplication to simplify the equation. 3×8=243 \times 8 = 24, so the equation becomes: 24+5y=624 + 5y = -6
  3. Isolate variable yy: Isolate the variable yy by subtracting 2424 from both sides of the equation.\newline24+5y24=62424 + 5y - 24 = -6 - 24\newline5y=305y = -30
  4. Solve for y: Solve for y by dividing both sides of the equation by 55.5y5=305\frac{5y}{5} = \frac{-30}{5}y=6y = -6
