Put x = 1 in the equation.

So 6*1 - 2y = 12

that is, 6 - 2y = 12

Subtract 6 from both sides: -2y = 6

Divide both sides by -2: y = 6/-2 = -6/2 = -3

How do you find the value of x when there is no equal sign in the equation?

You cannot explicitly find the value of x without an equal sign, as an equation without an equals sign is an algebraic expression. However, we can turn your expression into an equation by adding in an equals sign, but setting the value to a variable. For example, 2x+5=y, or 5x2-4x=y. You can solve for x like that. The phrase "... there is no equal sign in the equation ..." is a meaningless description. Without an 'equal' sign, there is no equation.

What does x and y equal and the equation for x for 2x plus 5 equals 62 and 3x - y equals 23.3?

2x+5 = 62 and 3x-y = 23.3 x = 28.5 and y = 62.2 Solve the first equation and then substitute the value of x into the second equation to find the value of y.


What is the number that you would multiply one or both of the equations -4 equals 5y equals 6 -6x-y equals 8?

There is no need. The first equation can be rearranged to a simple equation in just y. Multiply it by 0.2 to solve for y. Substitute the value of y in the second equation and rearrange to get a simple equation in x. Multiply by (1/6) to find x.
