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:

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

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

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

Colin has a pad with x pieces of paper on it. For his first class, he wrote on 5 fewer than half of the pieces of paper in the p

PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

Colin has 8 sheets left for his third class.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Total Number of pieces of papers = $x$

Number of pieces of papers used for 1st class = 5 fewer than half of the pieces in the pad

Writing the equation:

$\text{Number of pieces of papers used for 1st class =} \dfrac{x}{2} -5 ...... (1)$

Also, Given that number of pieces of papers used for the 2nd class are 2 more than that of papers used in the 1st class.

$\text{Number of pieces of papers used for 2nd class =} \dfrac{x}{2} -5+2 = \dfrac{x}2 -3 ...... (2)$

Now, number of pieces of papers left for the third class = Total number of pieces of papers in the pad - Number of pieces of papers used in the first class - Number of pieces of papers used in the first class

$\text{number of pieces of papers left for the third class = }x-(\dfrac{x}{2}-5)-(\dfrac{x}{2}-3)\\\Rightarrow x-\dfrac{x}2-\dfrac{x}2+5+3\\\Rightarrow x-x+5+3\\\Rightarrow 8$

So, the answer is:

Colin has 8 sheets left for his third class.
