Substitution is when you plug in one value of a variable into an equation. In this case the value of y is given. Plug (x+ 6) into the equation: y=-2x - 3
You should get something like this: x + 6 = -2x - 3 From there you can add 2x to both sides, and subtract 6 from both sides to get this: 3x = -9 Divide both sides by 3 x = -3 Now that you have the value for x, plug -3 into the equation y = x + 6
y = -3 + 6 = 3
The final answer is D) {-3,3}
*btw in case you didn't know this, the first number in an ordered pair is "x" while the second is "y"
