Question

Make x the subject of y=3x-2

Answer 1

Explanation:

y = 3x-2 add '2' to both sides of the equation to get :

y+2 = 3x Now divide both sides by 3 to get :

(y+2)/3 = x Done.

Answer 2

To make x the subject of the equation
y
=
3
x
−
2
y=3x−2, you can isolate
x
x:

Start with the equation:
y
=
3
x
−
2
y=3x−2.
First, add 2 to both sides of the equation to isolate the term with
3
x
3x:
y
+
2
=
3
x
y+2=3x.
Finally, divide both sides by 3 to solve for
x
x:
x
=
y
+
2
3
x=
3
y+2
​
.
So,
x
x is the subject of the equation
y
=
3
x
−
2
y=3x−2, and it can be expressed as
x
=
y
+
2
3
x=
3
y+2
