Factor out the common term 4
-4(2x - y) = 24
Divide both sides by -4
2x-y= - 24/4
Simplify24/4 to 6
2x -y = -6
Subtract 2x from both sides
-y = -6 - 2x
Multiply both sides by -1
y = 6 + 2x
Answer:
m = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
First isolate y
3x + 2y = 14
-3x -3x
2y = -3x + 14
y = -3/2x + 14/2
y = -3/2x + 7
X-intercept is found when y = 0
0 = -3/2x + 7
-7 = -3/2x
x = 14/3
x-in. = (14/3,0)
1/4 or .25 because 6 * 4 = 24 so 6 would be a quarter of 24
