Question

How do you solve 3x-2y=24

Answer 1

You would isolate they term. And get on the first step

-2y = 24 - 3x

Then divide by -2.

Finally you get:

y = 3/2x  -12

Answer 2

Solve for X: add 2y to both sides, divide both sides by 3, factor out the common term 2 


Solve for Y: Subtract 3x from both sides, divide both sides by -2, factor out the common term 3, simplify
