A coordinate plane with a line passing through the points (0, negative 1, 0) and (4, 0).

A coordinate plane with 2 lines drawn. The first line is labeled f(x) and passes through the points (0, negative 2) and (1, 1). The second line is labeled g(x) and passes through the points (negative 4, 0) and (0, 2). The lines intersect at about (2.5, 3.2)

Tomas is making trail mix using granola and walnuts. He can spend a total of $12 on the ingredients. He buys 3 pounds of granola that costs $2.00 per pound. The walnuts cost $6 per pound. He uses the equation to represent the total cost, where x represents the number of pounds of granola and y represents the number of pounds of walnuts. He solves the equation for y, the number of pounds of walnuts he can buy. Which is the first error that Tomas made?
