Answer:

Correct choice is D

Explanation:

Given the system of two equations:


\left\{\begin{array}{l}4x+y=8\\6x-9y=12\end{array}\right..

Fro mthe first equation


y=8-4x.

Substitute into the second equation
8-4x instead of y:


6x-9(8-4x)=12.

Note that
8-4x=-4x+8, then the second equation will take look


6x-9(-4x+8)=12.
