Question

Rearrange to make x the subject: 3x+8= has x+6y

Answer 1

x = 3y - 4

Explanation:

Given

3x + 8 = x + 6y ( subtract x from both sides )

2x + 8 = 6y ( subtract 8 from both sides )

2x = 6y - 8 ( divide all terms by 2 )

x = 3y - 4

Answer 2

x=3y-4

Explanation:

3x+8=x+6y

so the goal here is to make everything equal to x. first, let's move all the X's to one side by subtracting x on both sides.

2x+8=6y

now we want x alone on one side so we subtract 8 on both sides.

2x=6y-8

divide by 2

x=3y-4
