Question

What is the value of x in the equation 2x + 3y = 36, when y = 6? 8 9 27 36

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

we can plug in the given value for y into the equation to find x

2x + 3y = 36

2x + 3(6) = 36

2x + 18 = 36

2x = 18

x = 9

Answer 2

Answer:

x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 3y = 36

Let y=6

2x+3(6) = 36

2x+18 = 36

Subtract 18 from each side

2x+18-18 =36-18

2x = 18

Divide by 2

2x/2 =18/2

x = 9
