Answer:

If the equation is 2x+3y= 36 then the value of x would be 9

Explanation:

3y means 3 x y so:

2x + 3 x 6 = 36

3 x 6 = 18

We take away 18 because we wanna know what 2 multiplied by y equals

36 - 18 = 18

18 ÷ 2 = 9

the answer is x=9 because you take the y away and put in the 6 so that become 18. then subtract the 18 from 36 which equal 18 the divide the 2 from the 18 and that equal 9
