Question

What does y equal when x = -6 in 3x + y = 6
What’s the answer

Answer 1

1. 3x + y = 6

2. 3(-6) + y = 6

3. -18 + y = 6

4. +18 +18

5. y = 24

Therefore, 3(-6) + (24) = 6

-18 + 24 = 6

You’re welcome :D

Answer 2

y = 24

Explanation:

3x + y = 6

Solve for y

Subtract 3x from each side

3x -3x+ y = 6-3x

y = 6-3x

Let x = -6

y = 6 -3(-6)

=6+18

=24
