Answer:

10

Explanation:

to find the answer for 3y + 4 we have to find the value of y.

we can find that by using the second equation.

-2y+6=2

-2y+6-2 =0 (subtract 2 from both the sided)

4= 2y (we will bring the -2y to the other side of the equation and then subtract the 6-2 to get the 4)

4/2=y (divide by 2 on both the sides)

∴ y=2

now we will plug in the y of value that we see as -2 into the first equation.

∴ 3y+4 will become

= 3(2)+4

=6+4

=10

hope this helps!!
