QuestionSolve for $y$ : $y - 20 = -3(x - 6)$

Studdy Solution

STEP 1

Assumptions1. We are given the equation $y-20=-3(x-6)$ . We need to solve the equation for $y$

STEP 2

First, distribute the $-$ to both terms inside the parentheses on the right side of the equation.
$y-20=-x+18$

STEP 3

Next, we want to isolate $y$ on one side of the equation. To do this, we can add $20$ to both sides of the equation to get rid of the $-20$ on the left side.
$y-20+20=-3x+18+20$

STEP 4

implify the equation.
$y=-3x+38$ So, the solution to the equation is $y=-3x+38$ .
