Answer to Question #242406 in Algebra for nad

Question

what is the given the equation x+y=6 and the assigned values for x, find the value of y.

Answer 1

Solution:

Given equation: $x+y=6$

On comparing it with general form $ax+by+c=0$, we get,

$a=1,b=1,c=-6$

Assume the assigned values of $x$ are 0,1,2. Now we find respective values of $y$ .

Put $x=0$ in $x+y=6$

$\Rightarrow0+y=6 \\ \Rightarrow y=6$

Put $x=1$ in $x+y=6$

$\Rightarrow1+y=6 \\ \Rightarrow y=5$

Put $x=2$ in $x+y=6$

$\Rightarrow2+y=6 \\ \Rightarrow y=4$
