Question

Given: x + 2y = -6. Solve for y.

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is option 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

The steps are :

$x + 2y = - 6$

$2y = -x - 6$

$y = \frac{ - x - 6}{2}$

Answer 2

Answer: choice #3

x + 2y = -6

2y = -6 - x      [ subtract x from both sides ]

y = (-6 - x)/2   [ isolate y ]

y = (-x - 6)/2 [ rearrange numerator ]

The answer choice that matches this is the third one, i hope this helps! :D
