Given 2x-y=6, solve for y

y=2x+6
y=2x-6
y=-2x+6
y=-2x-6

1 answer

To solve for \( y \) in the equation \( 2x - y = 6 \), we can isolate \( y \) on one side of the equation.

Starting with the original equation:

\[ 2x - y = 6 \]

We can add \( y \) to both sides:

\[ 2x = y + 6 \]

Now, we subtract 6 from both sides to isolate \( y \):

\[ y = 2x - 6 \]

So, the correct answer is:

\[ y = 2x - 6 \]
