I'm assuming the equation is: yx + 3y = 6 Now, you aren't going to get one answer for this, but you can factor for either x or y. In terms of y, this is y(x + 3) = 6 or y = 6/(x+3) In terms of x, this is yx = 6 - 3y or x = 6/y - 3 If you graph these, you'll get a y=1/x type function with the vertical asymptote at x=-3

x + y = 6 so that -x = y - 6 -x + 3y = -2 that is, y - 6 + 3y = -2 or 4y = 4 or y = 1 and then -x = y - 6 = -5 so that x = 5
Put in this form. Y =mX + c X + 3Y - 6 = 0 X + 3Y = 6 3Y = - X + 6 Y = - (1/3)X + 2 --------------------- slope(m) = - 1/3 ------------------------
2x+3y = 6 2x+3(0) = 6 2x = 6 x = 6/2 x = 3
Multiply first equation by 1.5, giving 3x + 3y = 12, but we are told that 3x + 3y = 6. If there isn't an error in the question then 2 = 1!
Yes and it works out that x = 3 and y = 4
