Question

Find a solution to the linear equation y=6x-18Value of x and y

Answer 1

Given linear equation is,

`y=6x-18`

To find the soution of the linear equation

Put y=0 in the given equation,

`\begin{gathered} y=6x-18 \\ 0=6x-18 \\ 6x=18 \\ x=3 \end{gathered}`

And put x=3 in the given equation,

`\begin{gathered} y=6x-18 \\ y=6(3)-18 \\ y=18-18 \\ y=0 \end{gathered}`

Hence, the values of x and y which satisfy the equation y=6x-18 is x=3 and y=0.

`\begin{gathered} y=6x-18 \\ 0=6(3)-18 \end{gathered}`
