Question

Solve for y in terms of x (rewrite each equation so that it starts with "y=")

a. 6x + 5y = 20

b. 4x - 8y = 16

thanks!

Answer 1

answers:

a. y = -6/5x + 4

b. y = 1/2x - 2

Explanation:

a.

5y = 20 - 6x

y = 20/5 - 6/5x

y = -6/5x + 4

b.

-8y = -4x + 16

y = -4/-8x + 16/-8

y = 1/2x -2
