Question

3y = 2x + 8
how can you use substitution in this problem?
substitute ? for ?
2x + 8
3 - 2y
3y

Explanation:

Step1: Understand Substitution Context

Substitution in systems of equations (though the full system isn't shown, likely another equation exists). The given equation is \(3y = 2x + 8\), so we can express one variable in terms of the other.

Step2: Identify Substitution Candidate

If we have another equation with \(y\) or \(x\), we substitute \(2x + 8\) for \(3y\) (since \(3y = 2x + 8\), so \(3y\) and \(2x + 8\) are equal). So substitute \(2x + 8\) for \(3y\).

Answer:

Substitute \(2x + 8\) for \(3y\)
