Answer 2

Answer:

x=2y-6

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for x, we need to have one more equation, as there are two variables; x and y. But, we can still get it to this point.

First, we need to get x on to one side.

x=-2y-6

That is all we can do from here.

If you provide another corresponding equation, we can solve for x.

Hope this provides some guidance!!
