could someone help me with this math problem?

Question

y+2=-2/3(x+6) for y

 

y=????

Answer 1

y + 2 = (-2/3)(x + 6)       multiply both sides by 3

3(y + 2) = -2(x + 6)        distribute

3y + 6 = -2x - 12            subtract 6 from both sides

3y = -2x - 18                   divide both sides by 3

y = -2x/3 - 6
