4x+y=2 and y=-6          Given 4x+(-6)=2                     Substitute (-6) for y 4x-6=2                   positive(+) and and negative(-)=(-) 4x=8                to leave x by itself, add 6 to both sides  x=2                                divide both sides by 4

to solve for x you just substitute -6 for y so you get 4x-6=2 4x=8 and x=2
