Question

11 - y = 3 + 6x
I need to solve the literal equation for y, but I don’t get it

Answer 1

y=-6x+8

Explanation:

A literal equation is an equation where variables represent known values. Literal equations allow use to represent things like distance, time, interest, and slope as variables in an equation. Using variables instead of words

11 - y = 3 + 6x

-11 -y = 3 -11 +6x

----------------------------------------------------

0-y = -8 +6x

Multiply everything by -1

y= -6x=8

Answer 2

Answer: y = -6x + 8

Explanation:

11 - y = 3 + 6x

-11 -11

-y = -8 + 6x

-1

y = -6x + 8
