Answer:

Explanation contains answer.

Explanation:

Question 1:

I would perfer to solve the first equation for y because there is only one operation to perform on both sides and it is subtraction of 2x on both sides.

The other equation requires two steps to isolate y; subtracting 3x on both sides then multiplying both sides by -1.

So basically solving the first one for y because it has coefficient 1.

Question 2:

They solved the 2nd equation for y and plugged into itself instead of plugging it into 1st equation.
