    Y=x-3

    2y=3x-8

    plug in y

    2 (x-3) = 3x-8

    simplify

    2x-6=3x-8

    +8 both sides

    2x+2=3x

    -2x both sides

    2=x

    plug in to solve for y

    y=2-3

    y=-1

    check if correct

    2 (-1) = 3 (2) - 8

    -2=6-8

    -2=-2

    true

    x=2

    y=-1

    Y = x - 3

    2y = 3x - 8

    2 (x - 3) = 3x - 8

    2x - 6 = 3x - 8

    -2x - 2x

    -6 = x - 8

    +8 + 8

    2 = x

    to find y you plug x in an equation

    y = x - 3

    y = 2 - 3

    y = - 1
