Her description of Cynthia is reminiscent of what is known as a "drama queen," someone who pretends and fakes and acts ridiculous over things she should be proud to have worked hard to achieve. And she'll clutch the lace on her blouse like it was a narrow escape.

Explanation:

substitute y = 2x - 4 to x + 2y = 12:

x + 2(2x - 4) = 12     use distributive property

x + (2)(2x) + () = 12

x + 4x - 8 = 12     add 8 to both sides

5x = 20     divide both sides by 5

x = 4

put the value of x to the first equation:

y = 2(4) - 4

y = 8 - 4

y = 4
