How do you solve for y in #6y=-3x+12#? Algebra Graphs of Linear Equations and Functions Slope-Intercept Form 1 Answer Ricardo · Stefan V. May 10, 2018 #y=-1/2x+2# Explanation: Divide both sides by #6# since the #y# is #6y# and you want to isolate the variable. In this case, dividing #6# works since it results in #y#. When you do it to the other side, #(-3x)/6 = -1/2x" "# and #" "12/2 = 2# Answer link Related questions What is Slope-Intercept Form? How do you find the "m" and "b" of any linear equation?
