Question

How do I solve 2x-3y=12 step by step?

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: •Subtract 2x from both sides of the equation.

-3y = 12 - 2x

•Divide each term by -3y = 12 - 2x by -3.

-3y/-3 = 12/-3 + -2x/-3

•Cancel the common factor of -3.

12/-3 + -2x/-3

•Divide y by 1.

y = 12/-3 + -2x/-3

•Simplify each term.

•Divide 12 by -3.

y = -4 + -2x/-3

•Dividing two negatives values results in a positive value.

y = -4 + 2x/3
