Question 665024: 6x+23y=42 solve for y

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Starting with 6x+23y=42
Isolate y
6x + 23y - 6x = 42 - 6x
which leaves,
23y = 42 - 6x
Divide both sides by 23
%2823y%2F23%29+=+%2842%2F23%29+-+%286x%2F23%29
resulting in
y+=+%2842%2F23%29+-+%286%2F23%29%2Ax
rearrange to fit y = mx + b format
y=%28-6%2F23%29%2Ax+%2B+%2821%2F13%29
