To solve for y, we need to isolate the variable y on one side of the equation.
Starting with 2x - y = 6, we want to get y by itself.
To do this, we can first subtract 2x from both sides of the equation:
-y = -2x + 6
Next, to isolate y, we multiply both sides by -1 (or divide by -1) to get rid of the negative sign:
y = 2x - 6
Therefore, the solution for y is y = 2x - 6.
2x - y = 6 solve for y
