Question

Complete the solution of the equation. Find the value of y when x equals 26. -x-3y=4

Answer 1

Answer: The value of y is -10 when x=26.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is,

`-x-3y=4`

Put x = 26 in the above equation,

`-26-3y=4`

Add 26 both sides in the above equation.

`-3y=4+26`

`-3y=30`

Divide both sides by 3.

`(-30)/(3) =(3y)/(3)`

`-10=y`

Therefore, when x=26 the value of y is -10.
