Solving Linear Equations for Y

x + 2y = 16

• y = -1/2x + 8

• y = -3/2x + 8

• y = 3/2x - 3/2

• y = 8x - 3/2

When converting the equation

2x - 3y = -9

into slope-intercept form, the first step to solve for y would be to ____________.

• subtract 2x from each side

• subtract 3y from each side

• add 2x to each side

• add 3y to each side

Solve for y.

Convert the equation into slope-intercept form.

x + 5y = -25

• y = -⅕x - 5

• y = -x - 5

• x = 20

• y = 27, 239, 430

Solve for y:
3x + y = 12

• y = -3x +12

• x = y + 4

• x = y + 12

• y = 3x -12

Solve for y:
y + 2 = 3x

• y = 2x + 3

• y= 3x +2

• y= 3x -2

• y= 6x

When converting the equation -x + 2y = -10 into slope-intercept form, the first step to solve for y would be to ____________.

• add x to each side

• subtract x from each side

• add 2y to each side

• subtract 2y from each side

After subtracting 2x from each side, the resulting equation is shown below:

2x - 3y = -9

- 3y = -2x - 9

The final step to solve for y would be to ____________.

• divide each term by -3

• divide each term by 3

• add 3 to each side

• subtract 3 from each side

After subtracting 2x from each side, the resulting equation is shown below:

2x + 4y = 8

4y = -2x + 8

The final step to solve for y would be to ____________.

• divide each term by 4

• divide each term by -4

• add 4 to each side

• subtract 4 from each side

Solve for y.

• y= -5x+5

• y= -x+5

• y= x+1

• y= -x+1
