You've already been told it's not D.

Sub the numbers in for x and y.
what does sub the numbers mean ?? Please help.
@ms.sue
It means substitute the numbers for the unknown quantities.

-18.6x+ 17.2y=90.2

(-18x * 2) + (17.2 * 3) = 90.2

As another tutor told you, that doesn't work.
thank you. so I did that and is it b ?
Yes. B is right.
