    Step-by-step explanation:

    8X + 6Y=4

    Y=-3X+9

    Substitute the second equation into the first. Every place you see y put - 3x+9)

    8x + 6 (-3x+9) = 4

    Distribute

    8x-18x + 54 = 4

    Combine like terms

    -10x + 54 = 5

    Subtract 54 from each side

    -10x + 54-54=4-54

    -10x = - 50

    Divide by - 10

    -10x/-10 = - 50/-10

    x = 5

    Now we need to find y

    y = - 3x+9

    y = - 3 (5) + 9

    y = - 15+9

    y = 6
