Best Answer

It's a simple linear equation in 'y'.

It can be solved like this:

6y + 20 = 9

Subtract 20 from each side:

6y = -11

Divide each side by 6:

y = -11/6

What does 4x plus 6y equals 24 7x plus 6y equals 9?

It does nothing! 4x + 6y = 24 7x + 6y = 9 Subtracting the first equation from the second gives: 3x = - 15 so that x = -5 Substituting the value of x in the first equation gives -20 + 6y = 24 so that 6y = 44 and so y = 22/3 or 71/3

What is the sum of this equation -5x plus y equals -12 -3x plus 6y equals -12?

-5x + y = -12- 3x + 6y = -12Since both of expressions have a value of -12, their sum is - 24. This is true only whenx = 20/9 and y = -8/9.-5x + y = -12y = 5x - 12- 3x + 6y = -12-3x + 6(5x - 12) = -12-3x + 30x - 72 = -1227x = 60x = 60/27x = 20/9y = 5x - 12y = 5(20/9) - 12y = 100/9 - 12y = (100 - 108)/9y = -8/9


5x plus 9y equals 0 6x plus 6y equals 2?

5x + 9y = 06x + 6y = 2 use substitution method5x + 9y = 0y = -5x/96x + 6y = 2 substitute y with -5x/96x + 6(-5x/9) = 26x - 30x/9 = 2 multiply by 9 to both sides54x - 30x = 1824x = 18x = 24/18 = 4/3y = -5x/9 = (-5/9)x substitute x with 4/3y = (-5/9)(4/3) = -20/27Thus the solution is x = 4/3 and y = -20/27.
