Question

Put the steps in order to solve the literal equation for y in terms of x.
6x+2y+ 8 = 180

Answer 1

x =
`(172-2y)/(6)`

Explanation:

6x + 2y + 8 = 180 ( subtract 8 from both sides )

6x + 2y = 172 ( subtract 2y from both sides )

6x = 172 - 2y ( divide both sides by 6 )

x =
`(172-2y)/(6)`
