A coordinate is (x , y)

They gave you: (2 , ?) you know x is 2, and now you need to it's y-coordinate


2x - 3y = 4 Since you know x is 2, you can plug in 2 for "x" in the equation

2(2) - 3y = 4

4 - 3y = 4 Subtract 4 on both sides

4 - 4 - 3y = 4 - 4

-3y = 0 Divide -3 on both sides

y = 0 (2, 0)

Answer:

x = 2 + 1.5y

Explanation:

Simplifying

2x + -3y = 4

Solving

2x + -3y = 4

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '3y' to each side of the equation.

2x + -3y + 3y = 4 + 3y

Combine like terms: -3y + 3y = 0

2x + 0 = 4 + 3y

2x = 4 + 3y

Divide each side by '2'.

x = 2 + 1.5y

Simplifying

x = 2 + 1.5y
