Solve x=y-6/2

$$x = \frac { y - 6 } { 2 }$$

Solve for y

$$y=2\left(x+3\right)$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Divide each term of y-6 by 2 to get \frac{1}{2}y-3.

$$x=\frac{1}{2}y-3$$

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

$$\frac{1}{2}y-3=x$$

Add 3 to both sides.

$$\frac{1}{2}y=x+3$$

Multiply both sides by 2.

$$\frac{\frac{1}{2}y}{\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{x+3}{\frac{1}{2}}$$

Dividing by \frac{1}{2} undoes the multiplication by \frac{1}{2}.

$$y=\frac{x+3}{\frac{1}{2}}$$

Divide x+3 by \frac{1}{2} by multiplying x+3 by the reciprocal of \frac{1}{2}.

$$y=2x+6$$

Solve for x

$$x=\frac{y-6}{2}$$

Solution Steps

Divide each term of y-6 by 2 to get \frac{1}{2}y-3.

$$x=\frac{1}{2}y-3$$
