Literal Equations

Solve for y

2x - 3y = 5

• x = (5 + 3y) /2

• y = (5- 2x) / -3

• y = 5 - 2x

• y = (5 + 2x) / 3

Solve for y:

2(y + 1) = -3x + 6

• y = (-3x + 4)/ 2

• y = (-3x + 5) / 2

• y = (-3x + 6) / 2

• y = -3x + 5

Solve for y:

3x + 4y = -8

• y = -8 - 3x

• y = (-8 - 4y)/ 3

• y = (-8 - 3x)/ 4

• y = -2 + .75x

Solve for y:

6x - 5y = 20

• y = (6x - 20) / 5

• y = 20 - 6x

• y = -4 + 6x

• y = 6x - 4

Solve for y:

x - 3y = -6

• y = x + 6

• x = -6 + 3y

• y = (-6 + x)/ -3

• y = (6 + x)/3

Solve for y:

8x - 3y = -9

• y = (-9x - 8x)/ 3

• x = (3y - 9)/8

• y = (8x + 9)/ 3

• y = 8x + 9

Solve for y

-2x + 5y = -10

• y = (2x - 10)/ 5

• y = (-10 - 2x) / 5

• y = 10/7

• x = 5(y + 2)/2

Solve for y:

-4(x-3) - 2y = -16

• y = 4x - 28

• y = 28 - 4x

• x = y - 7

• y = 14 - 2x

Answer explanation

If you got y = (28 - 4x) / 2 or y = (4x -28) / -2, try simplifying

Solve for y

11x - 8y = -48

• x = 8 - 6y

• x = (-48 + 8y)/11

• y = (11x + 48)/8

• y = 11x + 6

Solve for y:

6x + 5y = -15

• y = -15 - 6x

• y = (-15 - 6x) /5

• y = -3 - 6x

• y = -5 ( 6x + 15)
