Hey there!

ANSWER:
(-1)/(3)y+2

Step-by-step explanation:


6x+2y=12

Let's start by adding -2y to both sides.


6x+2y+-2y=12+-2y\\\text {This equals: 6x=-2y+12}

Our second and final step is to divide both sides by 6.


(6x)/(6)=(-2y+12)/(6) \\x=(-1)/(3)y+2(ANSWER)

If you are looking to solve y, the answer is 6 - 3x.

If you are looking for x, the answer is x = 2 - y/3

Hope this helps and have a great weekend!
