y=-1/3x+4 solve for y

1 answer

The equation \( y = -\frac{1}{3}x + 4 \) is already solved for \( y \). If you need to solve for \( x \) instead, you can rearrange the equation.

To do this, follow the steps:

  1. Start with the equation:
    \[ y = -\frac{1}{3}x + 4 \]

  2. Subtract 4 from both sides:
    \[ y - 4 = -\frac{1}{3}x \]

  3. Multiply both sides by -3 to isolate \( x \):
    \[ -3(y - 4) = x \]
    \[ x = -3y + 12 \]

Now, \( y \) is expressed in terms of \( x \), and vice versa. If you intended to solve for something else or need further assistance, please let me know!
