The method of solving "by substitution" works by solving one of the equations (you choose which one) for one of the variables (you choose which one), and then plugging this back into the other equation, "substituting" for the chosen variable and solving for the other. Then you back-solve for the first variable.
We can substitute y in the second equation with the first equation since y = y. Thesolution of the linear system is (1, 6). You can use the substitution method even if both equations of the linear system are in standard form. Just begin by solving one of the equations for one of its variables.
