Question

Solve $2+\frac{1}{6}y=3x+4$

Answer 1

`y=18x+ 12`

Explanation:

Given equation:

`2+(1)/(6)y=3x+4`

Solve for y

Subtract 2 from both sides:

`\implies 2+(1)/(6)y-2=3x+4-2`

`\implies (1)/(6)y=3x+2`

Multiply both sides by 6:

`\implies 6 \cdot (1)/(6)y= 6 \cdot3x+ 6 \cdot2`

`\implies y=18x+ 12`
