To prove that x=36, we need to substitute y=2 into the given equation and then solve for x.
Given equation: x/4 - 7 = y
Substituting y=2, we have:
x/4 - 7 = 2
Now, let's solve for x.
Adding 7 to both sides:
x/4 = 2 + 7
x/4 = 9
Multiplying both sides by 4 to eliminate the fraction:
4 * (x/4) = 4 * 9
x = 36
Therefore, we have proved that x=36.
