How do I solve for the following:
Directions solve each literal equation for the individual variable.
2x + 3y -6 (for x ) Linear equation
It has to equal something. What you have is a statement, not an equation.
To solve the given linear equation 2x + 3y - 6 = 0 for x, we need to isolate x on one side of the equation.
Step 1: Move the terms without x to the other side.
2x = -3y + 6
Step 2: Divide both sides by the coefficient of x, which is 2.
x = (-3y + 6) / 2
So, the solution to the equation 2x + 3y - 6 = 0 for x is x = (-3y + 6) / 2.
