Answer: x = -6

Step-by-step explanation: The problem gave us the y value, so we can just substitute it into the equation and solve it.

y = x - 6

y = 2x

2x = x - 6 (substitute the y value into the equation)

1x = -6 (subtract x on each side)

x = -6 (1x is basically saying x so you do not need to divide)
