Question

Rearrange the equation so x is the independent variable.6x+y=4x+11yy=______

Answer 1

Answer: y = 0.2 x

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, a variable whose variation does not depend on that of another is called independent variable.

Here, given expression is,

6 x +y = 4 x +11 y

⇒ 6 x - 4 x + y = 11 y

⇒ 2 x = 11 y -y

⇒ 2 x = 10 y

⇒ 0.2 x = y

Thus, the value of x does not dependent on the value of y.

Therefore, x is independent variable.

Thus, required answer is y = 0.2 x.
