What is the value of x in the equation 2x + 3y = 36, when y = 6?


Sagot :

3X6=18 and 36-18=18 and 18 divided by 2 is 9 so it is 9

First, substitute the values of the variables into the equation:

2x+(3)(6)=36

Then, you must simplify,

2x+18=36

Then, you must factor out 18 to leave x and its coefficient alone on one side of the equation:

2x+18-18=36-18

Then you must simplify the equation and divide by 2 on both sides of the equation to factor out the coefficient:

2x/2=18/2

Then you will simplify and you will find the value of x:

x=9
