Solve the equation for y: 6x-2y=14

1 answer

To solve the equation for y, we need to isolate y on one side of the equation. First, we can start by moving the -2y term to the other side of the equation by subtracting 6x from both sides:

6x - 2y - 6x = 14 - 6x

This simplifies to:
-2y = -6x + 14

Next, we can divide both sides of the equation by -2 to solve for y:

-2y / -2 = (-6x + 14) / -2

This simplifies to:
y = 3x - 7

Therefore, the equation solved for y is y = 3x - 7.
