Question

Solve for y.
3x + y = 3
y = [? ]x +

Answer 1

3x + y = 3
-3x -3x
y = 3 - 3x

ANSWER: y = 3 - 3x

Answer 2

To solve for y, we need to isolate y on one side of the equation. We can do this by subtracting 3x from both sides of the equation:

3x + y - 3x = 3 - 3x

Simplifying the left side gives:

y = 3 - 3x

So the solution for y is:

y = -3x + 3

Therefore, y is equal to negative 3 times x plus 3.
