Question

Solve for y.
6x - 4y = 11

Answer 1

`\sf \: y = ((11 - 6x))/( - 4) \\`

Explanation:

`\sf \: First, \: take \: 6x \: to \: right \: side.`

`\sf \: - 4y = 11 - 6x`

`\sf \: Now \: divide \: both \: sides \: by \: -4 \: to \: make \: y \: the \: subject.`

`\sf \: ( - 4y)/( - 4) = ((11 - 6x))/( - 4) \\ \sf \: y = ((11 - 6x))/( - 4)`

Answer 2

y = 3/2x -11/4

Explanation:

6x - 4y = 11

Solve for y

Subtract 6x from each side

6x-6x - 4y =-6x+ 11

- 4y =-6x +11

Divide each side by -4

-4y/-4 = -6x/-4 + 11/-4

y = 3/2x -11/4
