Question

Provide a solution for the following equation: 3x + 2y=4

Answer 1

One solution is to find x and y by doing the following:

Explanation:

Let's solve for x.

3x+2y=4

Step 1: Add -2y to both sides.

3x+2y+−2y=4+−2y

3x=−2y+4

Step 2: Divide both sides by 3.

x=-2/3y+4/3

Lets solve for y.

3x+2y=4

Step 1: Add -3x to both sides.

3x+2y+−3x=4+−3x

2y=−3x+4

Step 2: Divide both sides by 2.

y= -3/2x+2
