Question

Solve the equation. 3y 20=3 2y

Answer 1

Solution of the equation 3y + 20 = 3 + 2y is y = -17

Further explanation

Solving linear equation mean calculating the unknown variable from the equation.

Let the linear equation : y = mx + c

If we draw the above equation on Cartesian Coordinates , it will be a straight line with :

m → gradient of the line

( 0 , c ) → y - intercept

Gradient of the line could also be calculated from two arbitrary points ( x₁ , y₁ ) and ( x₂ , y₂ ) on the line with the formula :

$\large {m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$

If point ( x₁ , y₁ ) is on the line with gradient m , the equation of the line will be :

$y - y_1 = m ( x - x_1 )$

Let us tackle the problem.

$3y + 20 = 3 + 2y$

$3y - 2y = 3 - 20$

$y = -17$
