Question

(a) Rearrange the equation x + 2y = 6 to make y the subject.

Answer 1

To make y the subject, we must move everything to one side and y on the other.

  $x + 2y = 6\\2y = 6 -x\\2y = -x + 6\\y =-\frac{1}{2} x + 3$

Good day and I hoped that helped!

Answer 2

Answer:

$y=3-\frac{x}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Examine Equation

x+ 2y = 6

2. Subtract "x" from both sides

2y = 6-x

3. Divide both sides by 2

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

4. Simplify

$y=3-\frac{x}{2}$
