Question

If 2x + 3y = 6, what is x in terms of y?

Please explain why it’s G.

Answer 1

One way to write the steps could be like this:

`2\text{x}+3\text{y} = 6\\\\2\text{x} = 6-3\text{y}\\\\\text{x} = \frac{6-3\text{y}}{2}\\\\\text{x} = (6)/(2)-\frac{3\text{y}}{2}\\\\\text{x} = 3-(3)/(2)\text{y}\\\\`

Other methods may be possible.
