Explanation:

This question is about solving systems of equations (likely linear). After finding the value of one variable (e.g., \( y \)), the next step in the substitution method is to substitute that value back into an original equation to solve for the other variable (e.g., \( x \)). The first option describes re-solving for a variable, which isn't the next step. The second option is incorrect as the answer isn't found yet (only one variable's value is known). The third option matches the substitution method's next step.

Answer:

C. To substitute the value of y into one of the equations and solve for x. (Note: Assuming the third option is labeled C; if the original options had labels like A, B, C, adjust the identifier. Here, the third option is the correct one as per the substitution method logic.)
