Is that it?

-6x - 4y = 3x - y

?

And you need to solve for which variable? Y or x? :confused:

No is -6x-4y+3x-y when I solve the problem I have -3x-4y I group together the x and the y

Yes but that's not the answer.

Group the terms in x.

-6x +3x = -3x

That's good.

-4y - y = -5y

This is what you ought to have.
