Question

(a) Rearrange the equation
x
+ 2y = 6 to make y the subject.

Answer 1

`y=3-(x)/(2)`

Explanation:

1. Examine Equation

x+ 2y = 6

2. Subtract "x" from both sides

2y = 6-x

3. Divide both sides by 2

`y = (6)/(2) -(x)/(2)`

4. Simplify

`y=3-(x)/(2)`

Answer 2

To make y the subject, we must move everything to one side and y on the other.

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

Good day and I hoped that helped!
