"solve for X in terms of Y"



3x%2B2y=18 Start with the given equation



3x=18-2ySubtract 2y from both sides


x=%2818-2y%29%2F%283%29 Divide both sides by 3 to isolate x


--------------------------------------------------------------
Answer:
So our answer is x=%2818-2y%29%2F%283%29


"solve for Y in terms of X"




3x%2B2y=18 Start with the given equation



2y=18-3xSubtract 3x from both sides


y=%2818-3x%29%2F%282%29 Divide both sides by 2 to isolate y


--------------------------------------------------------------
Answer:
So our answer is y=%2818-3x%29%2F%282%29
