Question

Solve y = x + 6 for x.
Ox = y + 6
Ox= -y + 6
O x = y - 6
Ox= -y-6

Answer 1

To solve this equation for x, we need to subtract 6 from both sides of the equation as follows:

`\begin{gathered} y=x+6\Rightarrow y-6=x+6-6_{} \\ y-6=x+0 \\ x=y-6 \end{gathered}`

Therefore, if we solve for x, we get x = y - 6 (third option).

In summary, we have that:

`x=y-6`
