It is 8 because you divided it
Mult. the 2nd eqn by 6 and then add this "new" equation to the 1st given eqn:
-6x + y = -2
6x -18y = 54
--------------------
-17y = 52, or y = -52/17. Subst. this value of y into either equation to find the value of x.
Answer:74 is the answer and you would use P.E.M.D.A.S to solve
