Solve x=22-y/3

$$x = \frac { 22 - y } { 3 }$$

Solve for y

$$y=22-3x$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Divide each term of 22-y by 3 to get \frac{22}{3}-\frac{1}{3}y.

$$x=\frac{22}{3}-\frac{1}{3}y$$

Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.

$$\frac{22}{3}-\frac{1}{3}y=x$$

Subtract \frac{22}{3} from both sides.

$$-\frac{1}{3}y=x-\frac{22}{3}$$

Multiply both sides by -3.

$$\frac{-\frac{1}{3}y}{-\frac{1}{3}}=\frac{x-\frac{22}{3}}{-\frac{1}{3}}$$

Dividing by -\frac{1}{3} undoes the multiplication by -\frac{1}{3}.

$$y=\frac{x-\frac{22}{3}}{-\frac{1}{3}}$$

Divide x-\frac{22}{3} by -\frac{1}{3} by multiplying x-\frac{22}{3} by the reciprocal of -\frac{1}{3}.

$$y=22-3x$$

Solve for x

$$x=\frac{22-y}{3}$$

Solution Steps

Divide each term of 22-y by 3 to get \frac{22}{3}-\frac{1}{3}y.

$$x=\frac{22}{3}-\frac{1}{3}y$$
