To solve for y in the equation 3y + x = 33

1 answer

To solve for \( y \) in the equation \( 3y + x = 33 \), follow these steps:

  1. Subtract \( x \) from both sides of the equation:

\[ 3y = 33 - x \]

  1. Now, divide both sides by 3 to isolate \( y \):

\[ y = \frac{33 - x}{3} \]

So, the solution for \( y \) is:

\[ y = 11 - \frac{x}{3} \]
