Question 151822: Hi,
I need help with the folllowing: I not sure how to start with these solutions:
Linear Equations and their Solutions
How would I solve this problem: y/6 + 1 = 9
How would I solve this one ? 6 = -2x/4
Thank you,
Craig

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
y/6 + 1 = 9
%28y%2B6%29%2F6=9, cross multiply,
y%2B6=54
y=54-6
y=48
6 = -2x/4 , cross multiply,
24=-2x -------> cross%2824%2912%2Fcross%28-2%29=cross%28-2%29x%2Fcross%28-2%29
x=-12
Thank you,
