Question 25753:  2x-8=y+6 
 Answer by elima(1433)      (Show Source): 
You can  put this solution on YOUR website! Begin by adding 8 to each side; 
2x-8+8=y+6+8= 
2x=y+14 
You need to then make a table of values for x and then solve the equation for y; 
x|y 
---- 
1| 
2| 
3| 
Now plug those into the equation and solve for; 
2(1)=y+14 
2=y+14 
2-14=y 
-12=y 
So when x=1, y=-12 
2(2)=y+14 
4=y+14 
4-14=y 
-10=y 
so when x=2, y=-10; 
2(3)=y+14 
6=y+14 
6-14=y 
-8=y 
so when x=3,  y=-8 
Hope you understand 
=)
