In a card game, players score 8 points for each play called a meld. Select an expression that represents the points earned. What does your variable represent? Select two answers.

a8x
B.8+x

C. x is the total number of points
D. x is the total number of melds

x = -3

y = -18

step-by-step explanation:

to solve by substitution, substitute one variable and solve for the other. then substitute again to find the remaining variable.

x-1/3(3x-9) = -3 since y=3x-9 substittute y.

x-1/3(3x-9)=-3

x + x +3 = -3

2x+3=-3

2x+3-3= -3-3

2x=-6

x=-3

substitute again into y=3x-9

y=3(-3)-9

y=-9-9

y=-18

answer: y=0 if that is what u r looking for
