Substitution doesn't work for this, but elimination does.
-6x-8y=-20 +6( x+6y=-6)
-6x-8y=-20 + 6x+36y=-36
-6x and 6x cancel each other, add -8 and 36 to get 28, and -20 and -36 to get -56.
28y=-56
divide by 28 on both sides.
Y= -2
Then substitute y into one of the equations.
x+6(-2)=-6
x-12=-6
x=6
The ordered pair is (6,-2).
Answer:
Coordinates involve two points. (x,y)
Too find a pair (coordinate), use the x and y lines on the graph and see where the point falls.
For example
Point A is number <em>1</em><em> </em><em>on</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>y</em><em> </em><em>axis</em>
<em>number</em><em> </em><em>-</em><em>4</em><em> </em><em>on</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>x</em><em> </em><em>axis</em>
<em>So</em><em>,</em><em> </em><em>you</em><em> </em><em>would</em><em> </em><em>write</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>coordinate</em><em> </em><em>out</em><em> </em><em>at</em><em> </em>
<em>(</em><em>-</em><em>4</em><em>,</em><em>1</em><em>)</em>
The y axis values are the second point, so after you plot all of letters, use the y axis numbers and number them from least to greatest so you can find the mystery word.
