Question

How do u solve this 6y−1.5x=8

Answer 1

Answer: See below

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem, we can either solve for y or solve for x. Let's do both.

First, we solve for y.

$6y-1.5x=8$            [add both sides by 1.5x]

$6y=1.5x+8$            [divide both sides by 6]

$y=\frac{1.5}{6}x+\frac{8}{6}$

Now, let's solve for x.

$6y-1.5x=8$            [subtract both sides by 6y]

$-1.5x=-6y+8$       [divide both sides by -1.5]

$x=4y-\frac{8}{1.5}$

I don't know what you are solving, but if you were to solve for x and y, that would be your answer.
