Question

Solve for y: 2x + 3y = 6 - y

Answer 1

The answer for this equation is X=3

Answer 2

Explanation:

2x+3y=6−y

Add y to both sides.

2x+3y+y=6

Combine 3y and y to get 4y.

2x+4y=6

Subtract 2x from both sides.

4y=6−2x

Divide both sides by 4.

4

4y

​

=

4

6−2x

​

Dividing by 4 undoes the multiplication by 4.

y=

4

6−2x

​

Divide 6−2x by 4.

y=

2

3−x
