Use the substitution method to solve the system of equations. choose the correct ordered pair.

y = 6x + 2
y = x + 17

A) y = 6x + 2 
B) y = x + 17
A) x = (y -2)/6
Substituting this into B)
B) y = (y -2)/6 + 17
6y = y-2 + 102
5y = 100
y = 20

and from this equation

y = x + 17
20 = x + 17
x = 3

No because if you do the higher number minus the lower number you will get a positive. if you do it the other way around you will get a negative number
