Answer:


y=-12x+16

Explanation:

We have been given an equation
11-(1)/(2)y=3+6x. We are asked to solve our given equation for y.

Subtract 11 from both sides:


11-11-(1)/(2)y=3-11+6x


-(1)/(2)y=-8+6x

Multiply both sides by -2:


(-2)-(1)/(2)y=-2(-8+6x)


y=(-2)(-8)+(-2)(6x)


y=16-12x


y=-12x+16

Therefore, our required equation would be
y=-12x+16.

11 -
(1)/(2)y = 3 + 6x Subtract 11 from both sides
-
(1)/(2)y = 3 + 6x - 11 Combine like terms (3 and -11)
-
(1)/(2)y = 6x - 8 Multiply both sides by -2 to cancel out the fraction
y = -12x + 16
